Let R be a ring. For a fixed positive integer n, R is said to
be left n-semihereditary in case every n-generated left ideal is projective. R
is said to be weakly n-semihereditary if each n-generated left (and/or right)
ideal is flat. Some properties of n-semihereditary rings, respectively, weakly
n-semihereditary rings and n-coherent rings are investigated. It is also proved
that R is left n-semihereditary if and only if it is left n-coherent and weakly
n-semihereditary, if and only if the ring of n × n matrices over R is left 1-
semihereditary if and only if the class of all n-flat right R-modules form the
torsion-free class of a torsion theory. Some known results are extended or
obtained as corollaries
