1. Adornment, adorning, such as in women's attire.

2. In philosophical usage it means 'the world, the orderly universe' in the sense of the sum total of all that is here and now.

3. "the world" as the sum total of all the beings above the level of the animals.

4. "the world" in terms of the planet earth on which humans live. This also includes the idea of the planet earth in contrast to heaven.

5. "the world" as mankind, and sometimes especially of believers (it is used this way in John 3:16,17; 6:33,51.

6. "the world" as the scene of earthly joys and pleasures, as well as cares and sufferings.

7. "the world" and everything that belongs to it as something which is in a state of enmity with God.

8. "totality or sum total" of something. It is used this way in James 3:6 in relation to the tongue being a world of iniquity.
