Theory \The"o*ry\, n.; pl. {Theories}. [F. th[82]orie, L.       theoria, Gr. [?] a beholding, spectacle, contemplation,       speculation, fr. [?] a spectator, [?] to see, view. See       {Theater}.]       1. A doctrine, or scheme of things, which terminates in             speculation or contemplation, without a view to practice;             hypothesis; speculation.          Note: [bd]This word is employed by English writers in a very                loose and improper sense. It is with them usually                convertible into hypothesis, and hypothesis is commonly                used as another term for conjecture. The terms theory                and theoretical are properly used in opposition to the                terms practice and practical. In this sense, they were                exclusively employed by the ancients; and in this                sense, they are almost exclusively employed by the                Continental philosophers.[b8] --Sir W.
