   Crystallization \Crys`tal*li*za"tion\
      (kr[icr]s`t[ait]l*l[icr]*z[amac]"sh[ucr]n), n. [Cf. F.
      cristallization.]
      1. (Chem. & Min.) The act or process by which a substance in
            solidifying assumes the form and structure of a crystal,
            or becomes crystallized.
  
      2. The body formed by crystallizing; as, silver on
            precipitation forms arborescent crystallizations.
  
      Note: The systems of crystallization are the several classes
               to which the forms are mathematically referable. They
               are most simply described according to the relative
               lengths and inclinations of certain assumed lines
               called axes; but the real distinction is the degree of
               symmetry characterizing them. 1. {The Isometric, [or]
               Monometric, system} has the axes all equal, as in the
               cube, octahedron, etc. 2. {The Tetragonal, [or]
               Dimetric, system} has a varying vertical axis, while
               the lateral are equal, as in the right square prism. 3.
               {The Orthorhombic, [or] Trimetric, system} has the
               three axes unequal, as in the rectangular and rhombic
               prism. In this system, the lateral axes are called,
               respectively, macrodiagonal and brachydiagonal. -- The
               preceding are erect forms, the axes intersecting at
               right angles. The following are oblique. 4. {The
               Monoclinic system}, having one of the intersections
               oblique, as in the oblique rhombic prism. In this
               system, the lateral axes are called respectively,
               clinodiagonal and orthodiagonal. 5. {The Triclinic
               system}, having all the three intersections oblique, as
               in the oblique rhomboidal prism. There is also: 6. {The
               Hexagonal system} (one division of which is called
               Rhombohedral), in which there are three equal lateral
               axes, and a vertical axis of variable length, as in the
               hexagonal prism and the rhombohedron.
  
      Note: The Diclinic system, sometimes recognized, with two
               oblique intersections, is only a variety of the
               Triclinic.

      Syn: To {Draw}, {Drag}.
  
      Usage: Draw differs from drag in this, that drag implies a
                  natural inaptitude for drawing, or positive
                  resistance; it is applied to things pulled or hauled
                  along the ground, or moved with toil or difficulty.
                  Draw is applied to all bodies moved by force in
                  advance, whatever may be the degree of force; it
                  commonly implies that some kind of aptitude or
                  provision exists for drawing. Draw is the more general
                  or generic term, and drag the more specific. We say,
                  the horses draw a coach or wagon, but they drag it
                  through mire; yet draw is properly used in both cases.

      Syn: To {Draw}, {Drag}.
  
      Usage: Draw differs from drag in this, that drag implies a
                  natural inaptitude for drawing, or positive
                  resistance; it is applied to things pulled or hauled
                  along the ground, or moved with toil or difficulty.
                  Draw is applied to all bodies moved by force in
                  advance, whatever may be the degree of force; it
                  commonly implies that some kind of aptitude or
                  provision exists for drawing. Draw is the more general
                  or generic term, and drag the more specific. We say,
                  the horses draw a coach or wagon, but they drag it
                  through mire; yet draw is properly used in both cases.
