Definitions

Pronunciation : Al"ter
Part of Speech : v. t. [imp. & p. p. Altered; p. pr. & vb. n. Altering.]
Etymology : [F. alt?rer, LL. alterare, fr. L. alter other, alius other. Cf. Else, Other.]
Definition : 1. To make otherwise; to change in some respect, either partially or wholly; to vary; to modify. "To alter the king's course." "To alter the condition of a man." "No power in Venice can alter a decree." Shak. It gilds all objects, but it alters none. Pope. My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. Ps. lxxxix. 34.

Syn. -- Change, Alter. Change is generic and the stronger term. It may express a loss of identity, or the substitution of one thing in place of another; alter commonly expresses a partial change, or a change in form or details without destroying identity.
