<syn>Syn. -- <er>Education</er>, <er>Instruction</er>, <er>Teaching</er>, <er>Training</er>, <er>Breeding</er>.</syn> <usage><i>Education</i>, properly <i>a drawing forth</i>, implies not so much the communication of knowledge as the discipline of the intellect, the establishment of the principles, and the regulation of the heart. <i>Instruction</i> is that part of education which furnishes the mind with knowledge. <i>Teaching</i> is the same, being simply more familiar. It is also applied to practice; <as>as, <ex>teaching</ex> to speak a language; <ex>teaching</ex> a dog to do tricks</as>. <i>Training</i> is a department of education in which the chief element is exercise or practice for the purpose of imparting facility in any physical or mental operation. <i>Breeding</i> commonly relates to the manners and outward conduct.</usage>
