BREVE

n.[L. brevis. ] 1. In music, a note or character of time, equivalent to two semibreves or four minims. When dotted, it is equal to three semibreves.
2. In law, a writ directed to the chancellor, judges, sheriffs or other officers, whereby a person is summoned, or attached, to answer in the king's court.
This word, in the latter sense, is more generally written brief.

 

BREVET

n.[from breve. ] In the French customs, the grant of a favor or donation from the king, or the warrant evidencing the grant; a warrant; a brief, or commission. More particularly, a commission given to a subaltern officer, written on parchment, without seal. 1. A commission to an officer which entitles him to a rank in the army above his pay. Thus a brevit major serves as a captain and received pay as such. Such commissions were given to the officers of the American Army at the close of the war, giving them a grade of rank above that which they had held during service.
