def. A clock is an instrument for measuring and indicating the
time. The word "clock" is derived ultimately (via Dutch, Northern French, and Medieval
Latin) from the Celtic words clagan and clocca meaning "bell". For horologists and
other specialists the term "clock" continues to mean exclusively a device with a
striking mechanism for announcing intervals of time acoustically, by ringing a bell,
a set of chimes, or a gong. A silent instrument lacking such a mechanism has traditionally
been known as a timepiece. In general usage today, however, a "clock" refers to
any device for measuring and displaying the time which, unlike a watch, is not worn
on the person.
