   Syn: Division; share; parcel; quantity; allotment; dividend.
        

   Usage: {Portion}, {Part}. Part is generic, having a simple
          reference to some whole. Portion has the additional
          idea of such a division as bears reference to an
          individual, or is allotted to some object; as, a
          portion of one's time; a portion of Scripture.
