# applied

verb (past form of apply: applied); adjective (applied — used in practice, as in applied science)

«applied» in the English dictionary: everyday and in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## Everyday

1. Applied is the past form of «apply»: she applied for a job, he applied sun cream, the rule applied to everyone. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/A/applied/#m1)
2. Applied describes knowledge used for practical work, not just theory, as in applied maths or applied science. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/A/applied/#m2)

### In the lessons

In school: you applied a rule, a method, or a formula to solve a problem; you applied glue or paint. In science, a force is applied to an object (pushed or pulled). In everyday life people applied for jobs, passports or places at school. «Applied maths» is maths used in real problems.
