Definitions

  1. practice of classifying plants and animals according to their presumed natural relationships

Word origin

Borrowed from French taxonomie. By surface analysis, taxo- + -nomy.

Used in a sentence

  • Holonym: ontology (relational rather than solely hierarchical)
  • At the petabyte scale, information is not a matter of simple three- and four-dimensional taxonomy and order but of dimensionally agnostic statistics.
