Base
(gcide) | Base \Base\ (b[=a]s), a. [OE. bass, F. bas, low, fr. LL. bassus

[1913 Webster]
Syn: Dishonorable; worthless; ignoble; low-minded; infamous;
sordid; degraded.
Usage: Base, Vile, Mean. These words, as expressing
moral qualities, are here arranged in the order of
their strength, the strongest being placed first. Base
marks a high degree of moral turpitude; vile and mean
denote, in different degrees, the lack of what is
valuable or worthy of esteem. What is base excites our
abhorrence; what is vile provokes our disgust or
indignation; what is mean awakens contempt. Base is
opposed to high-minded; vile, to noble; mean, to
liberal or generous. Ingratitude is base; sycophancy
is vile; undue compliances are mean.
