Usage notes

Use of as as a relative conjunction meaning "that" dates to late Middle English and was formerly common in standard English, but is now only standard in constructions like "the same issue as she had" or "the identical issue as the appellant raised before"; otherwise, it is informal, found in the dialects of the Midland, Southern, Midwestern and Western US; and of Lancashire, Cheshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Northamptonshire, Huntingdonshire, East Anglia, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Bedfordshire, Essex, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Surrey, and Cornwall; sometimes in Durham, Westmorland, Yorkshire and Somerset; only rarely in Northumberland and Scotland; and only in certain set phrases in Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Devon.

Synonyms

(expressing concession): albeit, although; see also Thesaurus:even though
(at the same time that): while, whilst; see also Thesaurus:while

Etymology 3

a +‎ -s.

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /ˈeɪz/

Noun

plural of a (compare with aes)

Usage notes

There is some difference of opinion regarding the use of apostrophes in the pluralization of references to letters as symbols. New Fowler's Modern English Usage, after noting that the usage has changed, states on page 602 that "after letters an apostrophe is obligatory." The 15th edition of The Chicago Manual of Style states in paragraph 7.16, "To avoid confusion, lowercase letters ... form the plural with an apostrophe and an s". The Oxford Style Manual on page 116 advocates the use of common sense.

Etymology 4

Shortening of as hell or as fuck.

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /ˈæz/ (never unstressed)

(slang) As hell or as fuck; very much; extremely.

Pronunciation

(Classical) IPA^(key): /as/
(Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /as/

Noun

as m (genitive assis); third declension

An as; a Roman coin originally made of bronze and weighing a pound, but later made of copper and weighing half an ounce.

Usage notes

It is especially significant as being the coin of least value in the Classical age; as such it was often used in poetry as representative of the idea of worthlessness - one example being in Vivamus atque amemus, where Catullus mentions "valuing opinions of old men at a single as". 2 and a half asses equalled a single sesterce.

Declension

The genitive plural is normally assium, but assum is found in Varro.

Third-declension noun (i-stem).
