geographies
- 1Plural of geography.
Researchers study the geographies of conflict zones to understand resource disputes.
The atlas describes the varied geographies of several island nations.
Note
The plural marks geography counted rather than taken as a whole: several terrains (the geographies of the Andes and the Alps), several distributions of one subject (the geographies of disease or wealth), or, in archaic use, several atlases and treatises describing the earth. When the meaning is the discipline in general, the singular is the natural choice: a degree in geography, not in geographies.
