vivologism
The reverse of a "definition". An existing word that is currently used by the masses, and which has a commonly agreed upon definition.
This is differs from "neologism" which means "newly coined word that has already gained popularity" and "protologism" which means "newly coined word that has no yet gained popularity and acceptance".

A "definition" is a mapping of 1 word to multiple words, whereas a vivologism is a mapping of multiple words to a single word.
The definition of "run" is to "move at a speed faster than a walk". The vivologism of "move at a speed faster than a walk" is the word "run".
I can't find the vivologism for the word "Exisiting for a very short time"...it's on the tip of my tongue!
