Overview
This is an electronic edition of the complete book complemented by author biography. ******************. Things are said to be named ''equivocally'' when, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. Thus, a real man and a figure in a picture can both lay claim to the name ''animal''; yet these are equivocally so named, for, though they have a common name, the definition corresponding with the name differs for each. For should any one define in what sense each is an animal, his definition in the one case will be appropriate to that case only. On the other hand, things are said to be named ''univocally'' which have both the name and the definition answering to the name in common. A man and an ox are both ''animal'', and these are univocally so named, inasmuch as not only the name, but also the definition, is the same in both cases: for if a man should state in what sense each is an animal, the statement in the one case would be identical with that in the other. Things are said to be named ''derivatively'', which derive their name from some other name, but differ from it in termination. Thus the grammarian derives his name from the word ''grammar'', and the courageous man from the word ''courage''.
