What is Definition?

Ironically, the definition of the term “definition essay” is not very specific. Definition essays are short pieces of writing on a particular topic. However, not every essay on a topic can be properly labeled a definition essay. Instead, a definition essay is an attempt to describe the topic thoroughly enough for the reader to understand it very well and might be compared to an encyclopedia entry for the topic. Any of our example essays could provide a good start on a definition essay about the topic. However, we have collected a sample of our best definition essays and included them below to help you explore the genre.
