planes
Flat mathematical spaces
Planes are flat surfaces, levels of existence, or aircraft.
A geometric plane extends infinitely in two dimensions.
A plane of existence suggests a realm or dimension: on a higher spiritual plane.
The aircraft sense dominates everyday use—a plane flies through the air: We caught the last plane out.
A woodworking plane shaves surfaces flat.
To plane is to smooth with such a tool, or to glide: The boat planed across the water.
