     apprehendere; ad + prehendere to lay hold of, seize; prae
     before + -hendere (used only in comp.); akin to Gr.
     chanda`nein to hold, contain, and E. get: cf. F.

        [1913 Webster]
  
              G. You are too much distrustful of my truth.

        [1913 Webster]
  
     Syn: To catch; seize; arrest; detain; capture; conceive;
          understand; imagine; believe; fear; dread.
  
     Usage: To Apprehend, Comprehend. These words come into
            comparison as describing acts of the mind. Apprehend
            denotes the laying hold of a thing mentally, so as to
            understand it clearly, at least in part. Comprehend
            denotes the embracing or understanding it in all its
            compass and extent. We may apprehended many truths
            which we do not comprehend. The very idea of God
            supposes that he may be apprehended, though not
            comprehended, by rational beings. ``We may apprehended
            much of Shakespeare's aim and intention in the
            character of Hamlet or King Lear; but few will claim
            that they have comprehended all that is embraced in
            these characters.'' --Trench.
