Resum
This paper provides a multidimensional approach to the meaning of sport. It is approached from the confluence of different lines of analysis. Its goal is to reach the meaning of sport and show that it is a polysemic term that must be approached with caution. First of all, we discuss the etymological evolution of the term. Secondly, we collect and discuss the main definitions derived from different interpretations, expressed so far. Finally, we culminate the analysis from a sociological examination of its contemporary meaning.
