Is this word used to mean a company? :shock:
In can be used in that way.
Although descriptive words are usually applied to it to simply describe an organization or company, I'd say it can still be used synonymously with the word company. This would be a secondary usage and not as common as the first way I spoke of.
It's
not a direct synonym for the word "company". However, it
could be used that way.
This is what I thought. The various definitions provided by OneLook bear this out.
Atomica says it is "a business organization" as a
secondary definition. A business organization, to me, would be the same as a company.
