n.
The representation of something; delineation; plan; especially, the representation of any object on a perspective plane, or such a delineation as would result were the chief points of the object thrown forward upon the plane, each in the direction of a line drawn through it from a given point of sight, or central point; as, the projection of a sphere. The several kinds of projection differ according to the assumed point of sight and plane of projection in each.

Having a conical or rounded projection or protuberance, like a boss.
n.
Any one of several Asiatic birds; as, the Indian robins. See Indian robin, below.
n.

Any projection corresponding to the tooth of an animal, in shape, position, or office; as, the teeth, or cogs, of a cogwheel; a tooth, prong, or tine, of a fork; a tooth, or the teeth, of a rake, a saw, a file, a card.
n.
A lateral projection at one end, or between the ends, of a piece, as a rod or bolt, by means of which it is moved.
n.
The transversal part of a church, which crosses at right angles to the greatest length, and between the nave and choir. In the basilicas, this had often no projection at its two ends. In Gothic churches these project these project greatly, and should be called the arms of the transept. It is common, however, to speak of the arms themselves as the transepts.
n.
A projection from the periphery of a revolving piece, acting as a cam to lift another piece.
