What are the most overused overloaded words in mathematics?This is community wiki. In each answer, please list one word at the top and below that list as many different meanings of that word in mathematics as you can think of, preferably with links or definitions. ("Adjective" and "adjective noun" count as the same adjective.) People should edit previous answers as appropriate. (This is mostly just for fun, but I'm also curious if there have been successful attempts to rename concepts that involve overused words.) Edit: I may have been slightly unclear about the intent of this question.
