What is a mote?
It depends on which "mote" you are referring to. I am assuming you are meaning "mote" as in "castle mote" so the rest of this definition applies to that assumption. Typically speaking, mote is the proper word to use to reference this man-made trench. A mote is a specific type of well, or trench dug out typically surrounding an edifice. Many times the type of edifice is applied to the description: one of the more common ones being "castle mote." But motes don't have to surround castles, they can surround entire cities, a house, or even pieces of land. They also don't have to be circular, nor do they have to surround the edifice or piece of land entirely. Motes are a specific type of man-made trenches; so a synonym would be "trench." But not all trenches are motes. Another synonym would be "ditch", but yet again, not all ditches are motes. The alternative spelling is "moat." Note: this is the proper alternative spelling for the word "mote" when referencing the man-made trench; it is not an alternative spelling for the word "mote" with the other definitions mentioned below. Moat is also a verb, meaning both "to fortify" and "to surround." Note: Mote also means "speck", "tiny particle", "flicker." Another definition is "meeting lodge" or "meeting place." It is also used as a verb meaning "may" or "might" as in the expression "so mote it be." "Mote" as used in the KJV of the Bible refers to a speck of dirt (i.e. particle of dust.)
