Concept, Conception

Concept, Conception. Conception is the faculty, and also the act, of forming a notion of the perceived object. Mere perception would not amount to this. Plainly it would do no more than reveal to us the existence of something external to the perceiving mind, would do nothing towards an answer to the question what that object is. Conception has been called by most English logical writers by the name of apprehension. Both are sufficiently significant, but conception has a larger grasp, and gives us the paronym concept, so that it is on the whole to be preferred. It is good to have separate words for a faculty, and an individual product of such faculty.
