WHAT DOES DIFFERENTIAE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Genus–differentia definition

A genus–differentia definition is a type of intensional definition which defines a species as a subtype of a genus satisfying certain conditions. Thus, the definiendum in such definitions is always a species, while the definiens consists of two parts: ▪ a genus: A pre-defined term that includes the species defined as a subtype. ▪ the differentia: The condition that distinguishes the species from other instances of the same genus. For example, consider these two definitions: ▪ a triangle: A plane figure that has 3 straight bounding sides. ▪ a quadrilateral: A plane figure that has 4 straight bounding sides. Those definitions can be expressed as one genus and two differentiae: ▪ one genus: A plane figure. ▪ two differentiae: ▪ the differentia for a triangle: that has 3 straight bounding sides. ▪ the differentia for a quadrilateral: that has 4 straight bounding sides. Note that the genus-species relation is relative. One may define "dog" as a species of the genus "animal", while "puppy" is a species of the genus "dog".
