  1. piecenoun

    Part, a substance, quantity, or amount that is the result of the division of something greater, is the general word, including all the others of this group. A fragment is the result of breaking, rending, or disruption of some kind, while a piece may be smoothly or evenly separated and have a certain completeness in itself. A piece is often taken for a sample; a fragment scarcely would be. Division and fraction are always regarded as in connection with the total; divisions may be equal or unequal; a fraction is one of several equal parts into which the whole is supposed to be divided. A portion is a part viewed with reference to some one who is to receive it or some special purpose to which it is to be applied; in a restaurant one portion (i. e., the amount designed for one person) is sometimes, by special order, served to two; a share is a part to which one has or may acquire a right in connection with others; an instalment is one of a series of proportionate payments that are to be continued till the entire claim is discharged; a particle is an exceedingly small part. A component, constituent, ingredient, or element is a part of some compound or mixture; an element is necessary to the existence, as a component or constituent is necessary to the completeness of that which it helps to compose; an ingredient may be foreign or accidental. A subdivision is a division of a division. We speak of a segment of a circle. Compare PARTICLE; PORTION.

    Synonyms:
    atom, component, constituent, division, element, fraction, fragment, ingredient, instalment, member, part, part, particle, portion, section, segment, share, subdivision

How to use piece in a sentence?

  1. Gavin Munro:

    We grow the chairs upside down and we start with one branch that spreads out into the chair-back. So, you've gone from one to two, and then the seat, and then you've got the four legs; and it's much more of a tree shape, actually it works in a similar way to 3D printing... we're using photosynthesis for the printing. So as it grows, you've got a piece growing up.

  2. Renee Dua:

    The best piece of advice I can give a mom who’s trying to do it all is, you’re probably doing a great job, you just haven’t given yourself any credit. To take one minute, step back and look at how much you’ve already done before 11 in the morning -- I bet it’s nuts.

  3. Taylor Gecking:

    My husband and I stopped at a flea market during a road trip and saw the Ronald McDonald stained-glass piece, and I was inexplicably drawn to it, i walked away from it that day, but a whole year later, as we were driving through the same area, I asked him to stop at the flea market so I could see if [ the piece ] was still there.

  4. Tamara Johnson:

    Is putting together the puzzle of my life. I was almost done when I realized I had lost a piece. Without that piece, my life incomplete. And sadly, I may never find it again.....

  5. Richard Feynman:

    Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.
