definiens \dih-FIN-ee-uhnz\ noun 1. something that defines, especially the defining part of a dictionary entry. 2. Logic. an expression in terms of which another may be adequately defined. Quotes One of them requires that the definiens (that is, words or terms which are used to define a particular word or term) must be more clear than the definiendum (the word or term being defined). -- Mohd Zaidi bin Ismail, "Clarity in thought for understanding," The Star, June 7, 2011 Origin Definiens came to English in the late 1800s from the Latin dēfīnīre meaning "to limit, define."
