Question

Q: What do you mean by the usage of the world ?

Option Answer Is Correct
1 World distinguishes the entire planet or population from any particular country or region: world affairs are those, which pertain not just to one place but to the whole world, and world history is a field of history, which examines events from a global perspective. Earth, on the other hand, refers to the planet as a physical entity, and distinguishes it from other planets and physical objects. ‘World’ can also be used attributively, as an adjective, to mean ‘global’, ‘relating to the whole world’, forming usages such as World community. By extension, a ‘world’ may refer to any planet or heavenly body, especially when it is thought of as inhabited. In the study of religion and mythology, the Underworld is a place, often thought of as below the world, where souls go upon death. In some mythologies there were numerous underworlds, the choice of which depended on the soul’s virtue or worth: ‘World’, when qualified, can also refer to a particular domain of human experience. The world of work describes paid work and the pursuit of a career; in all its social aspects, to distinguish it from home life and academic study. The fashion world describes the environment of the designers, fashion houses and consumers that make up the fashion industry. The New World is a part of the world discovered or colonized later than other parts; it usually refers to the American continents or to Australia. The Old World refers, by contrast, to the continents of Europe, Asia and North Africa.
