as, a field adjacent to the highway. ``The adjacent forest.''
--B. Jonson.

adjacent when they lie close each other, not necessary
in actual contact; as, adjacent fields, adjacent
villages, etc.

is peopled with Christians. --Howell.
※ Things are adjoining when they meet at
some line or point of junction; as, adjoining farms,

should touch with some extent of one side or the whole
of it; as, a row of contiguous buildings; a wood
contiguous to a plain.
