dimension

1. The magnitude of something in a particular direction (especially length or width or height) (synset 105100843)
   is a type of: magnitude - the property of relative size or extent (whether large or small)
   subtypes:

   • thickness - the dimension through an object as opposed to its length or width
   • slenderness, tenuity, thinness - relatively small dimension through an object as opposed to its length or width
   • length - the linear extent in space from one end to the other; the longest dimension of something that is fixed in place
   • breadth, width - the extent of something from side to side
   • height, tallness - the vertical dimension of extension; distance from the base of something to the top
   • third dimension - the dimension whereby a solid object differs from a two-dimensional drawing of it
   • fourth dimension, time - the fourth coordinate that is required (along with three spatial dimensions) to specify a physical event
2. A construct whereby objects or individuals can be distinguished (synset 105857567)
   "self-confidence is not an endearing property"
   is a type of: concept, conception, construct - an abstract or general idea inferred or derived from specific instances
   subtypes:

   • character, lineament, quality - a characteristic property that defines the apparent individual nature of something
   • characteristic, feature - a prominent attribute or aspect of something
   • feature, feature of speech - (linguistics) a distinctive characteristic of a linguistic unit that serves to distinguish it from other units of the same kind
   same as: attribute, property
3. One of three Cartesian coordinates that determine a position in space (synset 106020795)
   is a type of: cartesian coordinate - one of the coordinates in a system of coordinates that locates a point on a plane or in space by its distance from two lines or three planes respectively; the two lines or the intersections of the three planes are the coordinate axes
4. Magnitude or extent (synset 105098398)
   "a building of vast proportions"
   is a type of: magnitude - the property of relative size or extent (whether large or small)
   same as: proportion

1. Indicate the dimensions on (synset 200924113)
   "These techniques permit us to dimension the human heart"
   is a type of: mark - designate as if by a mark
2. Shape or form to required dimensions (synset 200142885)
