Unreferenced date December 2009 The lexical definition of a term, also known as the dictionary definition, is the Meaning linguistic meaning of the term in common usage. As its other name implies, this is the sort of definition one is likely to find in the dictionary. A lexical definition is usually the type expected from a request for definition, and it is generally expected that such a definition will be stated as simply as possible in order to convey information to the widest audience. Note that a lexical definition is descriptive , reporting actual usage within speakers of a language , and changes with changing usage of the term, rather than prescriptive , which would be to stick with a version regarded as correct regardless of drift in accepted meaning. They tend to be inclusive, attempting to capture everything the term is used to refer to, and as such are often too vague for many purposes. When the breadth or vagueness of a lexical definition is unacceptable, a precising definition or a stipulative definition is often used. Words can be classified as lexical or nonlexical. Lexical words are those that have independent meaning. e.g. Noun Noun N , Verb verb V , Adjective adjective A , adverb adverb Adv , preposition preposition P See also Definition Theoretical definition DEFAULTSORT Lexical Definition Category Logic Category Definition Ling stub ckb ... more details

For example, an extensional definition of the term nation of the world might be given by listing all of the nations of the world, or by giving some other means of recognizing the members of the corresponding class. An explicit listing of the extension, which is only possible for finite sets and only practical for relatively small sets, is a type of enumerative definition . Extensional definitions are used when listing examples would give more applicable information than other types of definition , and where listing the members of a set mathematics set tells the questioner enough about the nature of that set. This is similar to an ostensive definition , in which one or more members of a set but not necessarily all are pointed out as examples.

A precising definition is a definition that extends the lexical definition of a term for a specific purpose by including additional criteria that narrow down the set of things meeting the definition. For example, a dictionary may define the term student as 1. anyone attending an educational institution of any type, or 2. anyone who studies something. However, a movie theater may propose a precising definition for the word student of any person under the age of 18 enrolled in a local school in order to determine who is eligible to receive discounted tickets. Precising definitions are generally used in contexts where vagueness is unacceptable many law legal definitions are precising definitions, as are company policies. This type of definition is useful in preventing disputes that arise from the involved parties using different definitions of the term in question. A precising definition is intended to make a vague word more precise so that the word s meaning is not left to the interpretation of the reader or listener. Here is an example From a class syllabus Class participation means attending class, listening attentively, answering and asking questions, and participating in class discussions. This is similar to a stipulative definition , but differs in that a stipulative definition may contradict the lexical definition, while a precising definition does not.

It is a kind of collective agreement between people on the characteristics of a situation, and from there, how to appropriately react and fit into it.
