[
1913 Webster ]
Syn :
Usefulness ;
advantageous ;
benefit ;
profit ;
avail ;
service .
Usage : {
Utility }, {
Usefulness }.
Usefulness has an Anglo -
Saxon prefix ,
utility is Latin ;
and hence the former is used chiefly of things in the concrete ,
while the latter is employed more in a general and abstract sense .
Thus ,
we speak of the utility of an invention ,
and the usefulness of the thing invented ;
of the utility of an institution ,
and the usefulness of an individual .
So beauty and utility (
not usefulness )
are brought into comparison .
Still ,
the words are often used interchangeably .
