The collective body of persons who live in one house, and             under one head or manager; a household, including parents,             children, and servants, and, as the case may be, lodgers             or boarders.          2. The group comprising a husband and wife and their             dependent children, constituting a fundamental unit in the             organization of society.                         The welfare of the family underlies the welfare of                      society.                                             --H.

In zo[94]logy a family is less comprehesive than             an order; in botany it is often considered the same thing             as an order.          {Family circle}.

Female fern \Female fern\ (Bot.),       a common species of fern with large decompound fronds       ({Asplenium Filixf[91]mina}), growing in many countries; lady       fern.          Note: The names male fern and female fern were anciently                given to two common ferns; but it is now understood                that neither has any sexual character.          Syn: {Female}, {Feminine}.          Usage: We apply female to the sex or individual, as opposed                   to male; also, to the distinctive belongings of women;                   as, female dress, female form, female character, etc.;                   feminine, to things appropriate to, or affected by,                   women; as, feminine studies, employments,                   accomplishments, etc. [bd]Female applies to sex rather                   than gender, and is a physiological rather than a                   grammatical term. Feminine applies to gender rather                   than sex, and is grammatical rather than                   physiological.[b8] --Latham.
