Grating \Grat"ing\, n. (Optics)
   A system of close equidistant parallel lines or bars, esp.
   lines ruled on a polished surface, used for producing spectra
   by diffraction. Gratings have been made with over 40,000 such
   lines to the inch, but those with a somewhat smaller number
   give the best definition.

Grate \Grate\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Grated}; p. pr. &. vb. n.
