\Dis*crete"\, a. [L. discretus, p. p. of discernere. See {Discreet}.] 1. Separate; distinct; disjunct. --Sir M. Hale. 2. Disjunctive; containing a disjunctive or discretive clause; as, ``I resign my life, but not my honor,'' is a discrete proposition. 3. (Bot.) Separate; not coalescent; -- said of things usually coalescent. {Discrete movement}. See {Concrete movement of the voice}, under {Concrete}, a. {Discrete proportion}, proportion where the ratio of the means is different from that of either couplet; as, 3:6::8:16, 3 bearing the same proportion to 6 as 8 does to 16.
