Webster's 1828 Dictionary

TAX

n.[L. taxo, to tax. ] 1. A rate or sum of money assessed on the person or property of a citizen by government, for the use of the nation or state. Taxes, in free governments, are usually laid upon the property of citizens according to their income, or the value of their estates. Tax is a term of general import, including almost every species of imposition on persons or property for supplying the public treasury, as tolls, tribute, subsidy, excise, impost, or customs. But more generally, tax is limited to the sum laid upon polls, lands, houses, horses, cattle, professions and occupations. So we speak of a land tax, a window tax, a tax on carriages, etc. Taxes are annual or perpetual.
2. A sum imposed on the persons and property of citizens to defray the expenses of a corporation, society, parish or company; as a city tax, a county tax, a parish tax, and the like. So a private association may lay a tax on its members for the use of the association.
3. That which is imposed; a burden. The attention that he gives to public business is a heavy tax on his time.
4. Charge; censure.
5. Task.

We are more heavily taxed by our idleness, pride and folly, than we are taxed by government.
2. To load with a burden or burdens.
The narrator--never taxes our faith beyond the obvious bounds of probability.
3. To assess, fix or determine judicially, as the amount of cost on actions in court; as, the court taxes bills of cost.
4. To charge; to censure; to accuse; usually followed by with; as, to tax a man with pride. He was taxed with presumption.
Men's virtues I have commended as freely as I have taxed their crimes.

tax

tax noun 1 they have to pay tax on the interest: duty, tariff, excise, customs, dues; levy, toll, impost, tithe, charge, fee. ANTONYMS rebate. 2 a heavy tax on one's attention: burden, load, weight, demand, strain, pressure, stress, drain, imposition. ▶verb 1 they tax foreign companies more harshly: charge (duty on ), tithe; formal mulct. 2 his whining taxed her patience: strain, stretch, overburden, overload, encumber, push too far; overwhelm, try, wear out, exhaust, sap, drain, weary, weaken. WORD LINKS fiscal relating to the income received by a government through taxes Word Links sections supply words that are related to the headword but do not normally appear in a thesaurus because they are not actual synonyms.WORD NOTE indiction There can be a sonorous magnificence to our language, episodes of phrasing which yearn to be spoken out loud, mantra-like. I particularly enjoy turning over in my mind, for example, the phrase The Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway Company. I like imagining what goes on at The Mendocino Triple Junction (it is nothing to do with railways, as it happens, but all to do with geology ). And I positively tremble with pleasure when, all too rarely for my money, I am reminded of something called The Constantinopolitan Indiction, a complex formula of 15 -year tax cycles introduced in the fourth century and which, though falling out of favor in 1807, would give to the year of the first publication of this thesaurus an indiction of 12. (The formula for getting to this number is complicated indeed. ) Indiction has three very distinct meanings: it is an alternative word for a declaration or a proclamation; it is a kind of tax assessment created by the Romans —a concept, in other words, that could well be used in a modern property tax office; and it is a 15 -year period, such as that invented by the Emperor Constantine in ad 312. It is also the kind of word that, since it looks so very similar to the very different word indication, I like to use from time to time to keep readers alert and on their feet —and, because of its aforesaid sonorous magnificence, enjoying what they are reading. — SW Conversational, opinionated, and idiomatic, these Word Notes are an opportunity to see a working writer's perspective on a particular word or usage.
