Copying


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Copy
  • (a. & n.) From Copy, v.

Tracing


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of one who traces; especially, the act of copying by marking on thin paper, or other transparent substance, the lines of a pattern placed beneath; also, the copy thus producted.
  • (n.) A regular path or track; a course.

Example Sentences:
