analysis

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Financial, Acronyms, Idioms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

analysis

Branch of mathematics concerned with limiting processes on axiomatic number systems; calculus of variations and infinitesimal calculus is now called analysis.

analysis

In chemistry, the determination of the composition of substances; see analytical chemistry.

analysis

Means of communication that involves explanation. Analysis is particularly concerned with reasoning (why something happens, be it a scientific phenomena or human behaviour).

The language used to analyse scientifically must be precise and factual, whereas the language used to analyse poetry might be more subjective and personal. Analysis often requires a sophisticated level of language, which is capable of conveying abstract ideas and thought-processes.

A Treatise on Government by Aristotle View in context
He was to do this without the help of any written or printed specimens, with nothing in the shape of a grammar or analysis, but merely by oral communication with his Indian instructor, or with other natives, who, however comparatively intelligent, must from the nature of the case have been very imperfect teachers.
Grandfather's Chair by Hawthorne, Nathaniel View in context
