Communicate \Com*mu"ni*cate\, v. t. [imp. & p. p.
   {Communicated}; p. pr. & vb. n. {Communicating}.] [L.
   communicatus, p. p. of communicare to communicate, fr.
   communis common. See {Commune}, v. i.]
   1. To share in common; to participate in. [Obs.]

            To thousands that communicate our loss. --B. Jonson

   2. To impart; to bestow; to convey; as, to communicate a
      disease or a sensation; to communicate motion by means of
      a crank.

            Where God is worshiped, there he communicates his
            blessings and holy influences.        --Jer. Taylor.

   3. To make known; to recount; to give; to impart; as, to
      communicate information to any one.

   4. To administer the communion to. [R.]

            She [the church] . . . may communicate him. --Jer.
                                                  Taylor.

   Note: This verb was formerly followed by with before the
         person receiving, but now usually takes to after it.

               He communicated those thoughts only with the Lord
               Digby.                             --Clarendon.

   Syn: To impart; bestow; confer; reveal; disclose; tell;
        announce; recount; make known.

   Usage: To {Communicate}, {Impart}, {Reveal}. Communicate is
          the more general term, and denotes the allowing of
          others to partake or enjoy in common with ourselves.
          Impart is more specific. It is giving to others a part
          of what we had held as our own, or making them our
          partners; as, to impart our feelings; to impart of our
          property, etc. Hence there is something more intimate
          in imparting intelligence than in communicating it. To
          reveal is to disclose something hidden or concealed;
          as, to reveal a secret.

Communicate \Com*mu"ni*cate\, v. i.
   1. To share or participate; to possess or enjoy in common; to

                                                  4.

   2. To give alms, sympathy, or aid.

            To do good and to communicate forget not. --Heb.
                                                  xiii. 16.

   3. To have intercourse or to be the means of intercourse; as,
      to communicate with another on business; to be connected;
      as, a communicating artery.

            Subjects suffered to communicate and to have
            intercourse of traffic.               --Hakluyt.

            canals, which all communicate with one another.
                                                  --Arbuthnot.

   4. To partake of the Lord's supper; to commune.
