Ac-cur-cise [ak-yr-SAHYS] adj.

1. Of or relating to accuracy and/or precision
2. Used to describe a measurement that is both accurate and precise: that is, one that is close to the accepted value and sufficiently exact; It is difficult to get a measurement that is accurate or precise when Mr. Giromini is violently shaking my desk, so getting one that is accurcise is impossible.

Language of Origin: Fisixian

Also: Accurcision n.

Alternate spelling: Praccurate
