It is not only important, but, in a degree necessary, that the people of this country, should have an American Dictionary of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England, and it is desirable to perpetuate that sameness, yet some differences must exist. Language is the expression of ideas; and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas, they cannot retain an identity of language. |
FORNICA'TION, n. [L. fornicatio.]
Unlawful sexual intercourse on the part of an unmarried person;
the act of such illicit sexual intercourse between a man and a woman
as does not by law amount to adultery.
* In England, the offense, though cognizable in the ecclesiastical courts, was not at common law subject to secular prosecution. In the United States it is indictable in some States at common law, in others only by statute. Whartyon. Adultery.
