Transformation


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of transforming, or the state of being transformed; change of form or condition.

See Metamorphosis.
  • (n.) Change of one from of material into another, as in assimilation; metabolism; metamorphosis.
  • (n.) The imagined possible or actual change of one metal into another; transmutation.
  • (n.) A change in disposition, heart, character, or the like; conversion.
