Concordance


Definition:

  • (n.) Agreement; accordance.
  • (n.) Concord; agreement.
  • (n.) An alphabetical verbal index showing the places in the text of a book where each principal word may be found, with its immediate context in each place.
  • (n.) A topical index or orderly analysis of the contents of a book.

Example Sentences:
