  • noun. Measure in a single line, as length, breadth, height, thickness, or circumference; extension; measurement; -- usually, in the plural, measure in length and breadth, or in length, breadth, and thickness; extent; size
  • noun. extension that has length but no breadth or thickness; a straight or curved line.

  • noun. extension which has length, breadth, and thickness; a solid.
  • noun. as imaginary kind of extension, which is assumed to have length, breadth, thickness, and also a fourth imaginary dimension. Space of five or six, or more dimensions is also sometimes assumed in mathematics.
  • noun. Extent; reach; scope; importance.
  • noun. The degree of manifoldness of a quantity
  • noun. A literal factor, as numbered in characterizing a term. The term dimensions forms with the cardinal numbers a phrase equivalent to degree with the ordinal; thus, a2b2c is a term of five dimensions, or of the fifth degree.
  • noun. The manifoldness with which the fundamental units of time, length, and mass are involved in determining the units of other physical quantities.
