Dictionary Results for pease:
1. The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48
Pea \Pea\, n.; pl. Peas (p[=e]z) or Pease (p[=e]z). [OE.
   pese, fr. AS. pisa, or OF. peis, F. pois; both fr. L. pisum;
   cf. Gr. pi`sos, pi`son. The final s was misunderstood in
   English as a plural ending. Cf. Pease.]
   1. (Bot.) A plant, and its fruit, of the genus Pisum, of
      many varieties, much cultivated for food. It has a
      papilionaceous flower, and the pericarp is a legume,
      popularly called a pod.
      [1913 Webster]

   Note: When a definite number, more than one, is spoken of,
         the plural form peas is used; as, the pod contained
         nine peas; but, in a collective sense, the form pease
         is preferred; as, a bushel of pease; they had pease at
         dinner. This distinction is not always preserved, the
         form peas being used in both senses.
         [1913 Webster]
