Syn : {
Attitude }, {
Posture }.
Usage :
Both of these words describe the visible disposition of the limbs .
Posture relates to their position merely ;
attitude refers to their fitness for some specific object .
The object of an attitude is to set forth exhibit some internal feeling ;
as ,
attitude of wonder ,
of admiration ,
of grief ,
etc .
It is ,
therefore ,
essentially and designedly expressive .
Its object is the same with that of gesture ;
viz .,
to hold forth and represent .
Posture has no such design .
If we speak of posture in prayer ,
or the posture of devotion ,
it is only the natural disposition of the limbs ,
without any intention to show forth or exhibit .

1913 Webster ]
