Example: Ancient sources variously dated the founding of Rome to the 38th year before the first Olympiad, the third or fourth year of the sixth Olympiad, the first year of the seventh or eighth Olympiad, or the fourth year of the 12th Olympiad. Example: Now was bright Hero weary of the day, Thought an Olympiad in Leanders ſtay. 2. Synonym of Olympic Games: an instance of the ancient or modern Olympic Games. Labels: proscribed, sometimes Example: Victors at the ancient Olympiads only won an olive wreath but were usually freed from paying taxes for the remainder of their life, but modern Olympians have frequently needed to pay taxes on the market value of their gold, silver, or bronze medals. Example: It was their [the priests of Jupiter Olympius's] Buſineſs, alſo not only to regiſter the Names of the Victors in the ſeveral Games, with other Matters relating to them, but alſo whatever occurr'd remarkable, during the Intervals between the Celebration of every Olympiad. 3.

Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Holonym: sugar beet Example: Honey, maple sirup or sugar, molasses, and various commercial sirups can well be used in the place of cane or beet sugar.
