RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Commerce
Latin commercium. In its simplest signification, an exchange of goods; but in the advancement of society, labor, transportation, itelligence, care and various mediums of exchange, become commodities and enter into commerce. Gibbens v. Ogden, 9 Wheat. 1, 229 (1824), Marshall, Chief Justice. The interchange or mutual change of goods, productions, or property of any kind, between nations or individuals.
Trade
In its most extensive signification this word includes all sorts of dealings by way of Bale or exchange. In a more limited sense it signifies the dealings in a particular business, as the India trade; by trade is also understood the business of a particular mechanic, hence boys are said to be put apprentices to learn a trade, as the trade of a carpenter, shoemaker, and the like.
Sale
Contracts. An agreement by which one of the contracting parties, called the seller, gives a thing and passes the title to it, in exchange for a certain price in current money, to the other party, who is called the buyer or purchaser, who, on his part, agrees to pay such price.
Merchandise
By this term is understood all those things which merchants sell either wholesale or retail, as dry goods, hardware, groceries, drugs, &c. It is usually applied to personal chattels only, and to those which are not required for food or immediate support, but such as remain after having been used or which are used only by a slow consumption.
Money
Gold, silver, and some other less precious metals, in the progress of civilization and commerce, have become the common standards of value; in order to avoid the delay and inconvenience of regulating their weight and quality whenever passed, the governments of the civilized world have caused them to be manufactured in certain portions, and marked with a Stamp which attests their value; this is called money.
