times table
(gcide) | Multiplication \Mul`ti*pli*ca"tion\, n. [L. multiplicatio: cf.
F. multiplication. See Multiply.]
1. The act or process of multiplying, or of increasing in
number; the state of being multiplied; as, the
multiplication of the human species by natural generation.
[1913 Webster]
The increase and multiplication of the world.
--Thackeray.

2. (Math.) The process of repeating, or adding to itself, any
given number or quantity a certain number of times;
commonly, the process of ascertaining by a briefer
computation the result of such repeated additions; also,
the rule by which the operation is performed; -- the
reverse of division.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The word multiplication is sometimes used in
mathematics, particularly in multiple algebra, to
denote any distributive operation expressed by one
symbol upon any quantity or any thing expressed by
another symbol. Corresponding extensions of meaning are
given to the words multiply, multiplier, multiplicand,
and product. Thus, since [phi](x + y) = [phi]x + [phi]y
(see under Distributive), where [phi](x + y), [phi]x,
and [phi]y indicate the results of any distributive
operation represented by the symbol [phi] upon x + y,
x, and y, severally, then because of many very useful
analogies [phi](x + y) is called the product of [phi]
and x + y, and the operation indicated by [phi] is
called multiplication. Cf. Facient, n., 2.
[1913 Webster]
3. (Bot.) An increase above the normal number of parts,
especially of petals; augmentation.

numbers multiplied successively by 1, 2, 3, etc., up to 10
or 12. Called also a times table, used by students in
elementary school prior to memorization of the table.

humors of those in power.
[1913 Webster]Timeserving \Time"serv`ing\, n.
An obsequious compliance with the spirit of the times, or the
humors of those in power, which implies a surrender of one's

[1913 Webster]
Syn: Temporizing.
Usage: Timeserving, Temporizing. Both these words are
applied to the conduct of one who adapts himself
servilely to times and seasons. A timeserver is rather
active, and a temporizer, passive. One whose policy is
timeserving comes forward to act upon principles or
opinions which may promote his advancement; one who is
temporizing yields to the current of public sentiment
or prejudice, and shrinks from a course of action
which might injure him with others. The former is
dishonest; the latter is weak; and both are
contemptible.
[1913 Webster]
Trimming and timeserving, which are but two
words for the same thing, . . . produce
confusion. --South.
[1913 Webster]
[I] pronounce thee . . . a hovering temporizer,
that
Canst with thine eyes at once see good and evil,
Inclining to them both. --Shak.
