    DefinitionShort: people living at the same time and belonging to the same reproductive age-class
    Glosses: ['those of the same time', 'those of the same generation']
    Comments: The expression ‘the people of this generation’ may also be expressed as ‘the people living now’ or ‘the people of this time.’ Successive generations may be spoken of as ‘groups of people who live one after the other’ or ‘successions of parents and children.’

    DefinitionShort: successive following generations of those who are biologically related to a reference person
    Glosses: ['posterity', 'descendants', 'offspring']
    Comments: In the case of γενεά[c], {L:τέκνον}[b], and {L:σπέρμα}[b] ({D:10.29}), the reference is not to one’s immediate descendants or offspring (that is to say, to one’s sons or daughters) but to a successive series of such persons, one’s descendants. In some languages such descendants may be called merely ‘the children of one’s children,’ and in other languages one may refer to descendants as ‘those who follow one’ or ‘those who come later.’

    DefinitionShort: an indefinite period of time, but in close relationship to human existence and in some contexts, a period of time about the length of a generation
    Glosses: ['age', 'epoch']
    Comments: It is, of course, possible in {S:04401401600010} that the reference should be to ‘generations’ in the sense of periods of time.
