What Does Telescope Mean?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    In its nominal sense, a telescope can be any of various tubular magnifying optical instruments. In its verbal sense, telescope can mean to become forced together lengthwise with one part entering another as the result of collision, to slide or pass one within another like the cylindrical sections of a collapsible hand telescope, or to become compressed or condensed. Telescope can also be used as a transitive verb meaning to cause to telescope, to compress, or to condense.
