Noun

  1. A sail [[warship]], which carried her guns on two fully-armed decks. Usually additional guns were carried on the upper works ([[forecastle]] and [[quarterdeck]]) but this was not a continuous battery so was not counted. Two-deckers ranged all the way from the small 40-gun [[fourth-rate]] up to 80- or even 90-gun ships, with the [[third-rate]] or "[[seventy-four]]" being the archetype.
  2. {{lb|en|journalism}} {{syn of|en|double-decker||headline covering two lines}}.
