Remove \Re*move"\, n.
   1. The act of removing; a removal.

            This place should be at once both school and

Remove \Re*move"\ (r?-m??v"), v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Removed}
   (-m??vd"); p. pr. & vb. n. {Removing}.] [OF. removoir,
   remouvoir, L. removere, remotum; pref. re- re- + movere to
   move. See {Move}.]
   1. To move away from the position occupied; to cause to
      change place; to displace; as, to remove a building.

            Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor's landmark.
                                                  --Deut. xix.
                                                  14.

            When we had dined, to prevent the ladies' leaving

   Note: See the Note under {Remove}, v. i.

Remove \Re*move"\ (r?-m??v"), v. i.
   To change place in any manner, or to make a change in place;
   to move or go from one residence, position, or place to
   another.

         Till Birnam wood remove to Dunsinane, I can not taint
         with fear.                               --Shak.

   Note: The verb remove, in some of its application, is
         synonymous with move, but not in all. Thus we do not
         apply remove to a mere change of posture, without a
         change of place or the seat of a thing. A man moves his
         head when he turns it, or his finger when he bends it,
         but he does not remove it. Remove usually or always
         denotes a change of place in a body, but we never apply
         it to a regular, continued course or motion. We never
         say the wind or water, or a ship, removes at a certain
         rate by the hour; but we say a ship was removed from
         one place in a harbor to another. Move is a generic
         term, including the sense of remove, which is more
         generally applied to a change from one station or
         permanent position, stand, or seat, to another station.
