Ramp


Definition:

  • (n.) A romping woman; a prostitute.
  • (n.) Any sloping member, other than a purely constructional one, such as a continuous parapet to a staircase.
  • (n.) A short bend, slope, or curve, where a hand rail or cap changes its direction.
  • (n.) An inclined plane serving as a communication between different interior levels.
