        [1913 Webster]

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 :   [ gcide ]

  Analysis \A*nal"y*sis\, n.; pl. Analyses. [Gr. ?, fr. ? to
     unloose, to dissolve, to resolve into its elements; ? up + ?
     to loose. See Loose.]
     1. A resolution of anything, whether an object of the senses
        or of the intellect, into its constituent or original
        elements; an examination of the component parts of a
        subject, each separately, as the words which compose a
        sentence, the tones of a tune, or the simple propositions
        which enter into an argument. It is opposed to
        synthesis.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. (Chem.) The separation of a compound substance, by
        chemical processes, into its constituents, with a view to
        ascertain either (a) what elements it contains, or (b) how
        much of each element is present. The former is called
        qualitative, and the latter quantitative analysis.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     3. (Logic) The tracing of things to their source, and the
        resolving of knowledge into its original principles.
        [1913 Webster]

        conditions that are in them to equations.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     5.

            discourse, disposed in their natural order.
        (b) A brief, methodical illustration of the principles of
            a science. In this sense it is nearly synonymous with
            synopsis.
            [1913 Webster]
  
     6. (Nat. Hist.) The process of ascertaining the name of a
        species, or its place in a system of classification, by
        means of an analytical table or key.
        [1913 Webster]

     Volumetric analysis. (Chem.) See under Ultimate,
        Proximate, Qualitative, etc.
