  1. crowd

    Company, from the Latin cum, with, and panis, bread, denotes primarily the association of those who eat at a common table, or the persons so associated, table-companions, messmates, friends, and hence is widely extended to include any association of those united permanently or temporarily, for business, pleasure, festivity, travel, etc., or by sorrow, misfortune, or wrong; company may denote an indefinite number (ordinarily more than two), but less than a multitude; in the military sense a company is a limited and definite number of men; company implies more unity of feeling and purpose than crowd, and is a less formal and more familiar word than assemblage or assembly. An assemblage may be of persons or of objects; an assembly is always of persons. An assemblage is promiscuous and unorganized; an assembly is organized and united in some common purpose. A conclave is a secret assembly. A convocation is an assembly called by authority for a special purpose; the term convention suggests less dependence upon any superior authority or summons. A group is small in number and distinct in outline, clearly marked off from all else in space or time. Collection, crowd, gathering, group, and multitude have the unorganized and promiscuous character of the assemblage; the other terms come under the general idea of assembly. Congregation is now almost exclusively religious; meeting is often so used, but is less restricted, as we may speak of a meeting of armed men. Gathering refers to a coming together, commonly of numbers, from far and near; as, the gathering of the Scottish clans.

How to use Crowd in a sentence?

  1. Coco Gauff:

    I just remember walking out on the court blasting music with my head held down because I didn't want to look at the crowd, it was such a long walk from the locker room. It was, like, 15 minutes.

  2. Robert Crane:

    My parents were the first parents on my block to get a divorce, [People] would look at us like, ‘Oh, those show business people.’ All my friends, their parents were dentists, attorneys and salespeople. And I’m part of the carny crowd. The showbiz people… It was embarrassing to deal with that. So I retreated during my senior year of high school.

  3. Rebecca Phillips ':

    It just shows that HBCUs have been so undervalued, underfunded and neglected that our presidents are willing ... to go to a man who has failed to disavow the KKK, who has advocated for the death penalty for five young men in the 1990s, who has shouted out in a crowd saying, 'Look at my African American,' the fact that we are in such a desperate need for funding that they find this to be an opportunity? That's what got me.

  4. The CNNer:

    As I was reading through the comments, Jim Acosta talking to people in the crowd at the [ Trump ] rally last night and obviously seeing all of those pictures of no social distancing and very few people with masks on, et cetera, and the contrast to the football game last night where lots of masks, people socially distanced, the whole plan in place to protect the fans, the players the referees, the coaches, everybody, you know.

  5. Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger, Chapter IX:

    [Mankind] is governed by minorities, seldom or never by majorities. It suppresses its feelings and its beliefs and follows the handful that makes the most noise. Sometimes the noisy handful is right, sometimes wrong, but no matter, the crowd follows it.
