This is a place-holder until such time as the Vocabulary committee provides a formal set of recommendations

  • Definitions should be expressed in one sentence, two at most
  • Definitions should focus on what something is, not what it is not. (Usage notes may provide clarification by identifying exclusions and relationships to other concepts)
  • Definitions should not be tautological (i.e. do not use a term to define itself)
  • Definitions should be full sentences
