Definition:

  • (a.) Unequal; dissimilar; separate.
  • (a.) Pertaining to two coordinate species or divisions.

Unequal


Definition:

  • (a.) Not equal; not matched; not of the same size, length, breadth, quantity, strength, talents, acquirements, age, station, or the like; as, the fingers are of unequal length; peers and commoners are unequal in rank.
  • (a.) Ill balanced or matched; disproportioned; hence, not equitable; partial; unjust; unfair.

  • (a.) Not having the two sides or the parts symmetrical.

Example Sentences:
