  1. plane

    Horizontal signifies in the direction of or parallel to the horizon. For practical purposes level and horizontal are identical, tho level, as the more popular word, is more loosely used of that which has no especially noticeable elevations or inequalities; as, a level road. Flat, according to its derivation from the Anglo-Saxon flet, a floor, applies to a surface only, and, in the first and most usual sense, to a surface that is horizontal or level in all directions; a line may be level, a floor is flat; flat is also applied in a derived sense to any plane surface without irregularities or elevations, as a picture may be painted on the flat surface of a perpendicular wall. Plane applies only to a surface, and is used with more mathematical exactness than flat. The adjective plain, originally the same word as plane, is now rarely used except in the figurative senses, but the original sense appears in the noun, as we speak of "a wide plain." We speak of a horizontal line, a flat morass, a level road, a plain country, a plane surface (especially in the scientific sense). That which is level may not be even, and that which is even may not be level; a level road may be very rough; a slope may be even.

    Synonyms:
    even, flat, horizontal, level, plain

    Antonyms:
    broken, hilly, inclined, irregular, rolling, rough, rugged, slanting, sloping, uneven

How to use Plane in a sentence?

  1. Robin Murphy:

    It acts like a plane. It's smarter than a plane because it's got all sorts of onboard electronics to let it do preprogram surveys. It takes pictures like on a satellite or a Mars explorer and then pulls those back together into a hyper-accurate map -- a 3-D reconstruction.

  2. Blaine Gibson:

    It seems so unlikely, too, but the thing is nature works in mysterious ways, why does the ocean do what it does? I don't know. Maybe this is part of that plane, maybe this is part of another. It's small and it's very light so maybe it's just from some light aircraft. It would just be so unbelievable if it actually is from 370. That's exactly what went through my mind.

  3. Scott Lawson:

    Either life is solid or there is a recession, either way, it seems like plane deliveries are going to be more stable and highly profitable for suppliers.

  4. Mohamed Hossam Kemal:

    The plane did not request a change of route.

  5. Jiang Hui:

    The fund will be invested and the annual investment returns or interests will be used for the search of MH370, once the plane is found, the original donation will be returned to the donors, without interest.
