CONDENSE, v.t. [L., to make thick or close. See Dense.] NWAD CONDENSE.1

1. To make more close, thick or compact; to cause the particles of a body to approach, or to unite more closely, either by their own attraction or affinity, or by mechanical force. Thus, vapor is said to be condensed into water by the application of cold; and air is condensed in a tube by pressure. Hence the word is sometimes equivalent to compress. NWAD CONDENSE.2

2. To make thick; to inspissate; applied to soft compressible substances. NWAD CONDENSE.3

3. To compress into a smaller compass, or into a close body; to crowd; applied to separate individuals. Thus we say to condense ideas into a smaller compass. NWAD CONDENSE.4
