Species


Definition:

  • (n.) Visible or sensible presentation; appearance; a sensible percept received by the imagination; an image.
  • (n.)

  • (n.) Coin, or coined silver, gold, ot other metal, used as a circulating medium; specie.
  • (n.) A public spectacle or exhibition.
  • (n.) A component part of compound medicine; a simple.
  • (n.) An officinal mixture or compound powder of any kind; esp., one used for making an aromatic tea or tisane; a tea mixture.
  • (n.) The form or shape given to materials; fashion or shape; form; figure.
