Wages \Wa"ges\, n. plural in termination, but singular in signification. [Plural of wage; cf. F. gages, pl., wages, hire. See {Wage}, n.] A compensation given to a hired person for services; price paid for labor; recompense; hire. See {Wage}, n., 2. The wages of sin is death. --Rom. vi. 23. {Wages fund} (Polit. Econ.), the aggregate capital existing at any time in any country, which theoretically is unconditionally destined to be paid out in wages. It was formerly held, by Mill and other political economists, that the average rate of wages in any country at any time depended upon the relation of the wages fund to the number of laborers. This theory has been greatly modified by the discovery of other conditions affecting wages, which it does not take into account. --Encyc. Brit. Syn: See under {Wage}, n. | |
