Hyponymy and hypernymy In linguistics, a hyponym (from Greek "hupó", "under" and "ónoma", "name") is a word or phrase whose semantic field is included within that of another word, its hyperonym or hypernym (from Greek "hupér", "over" and "ónoma", "name"). In simpler terms, a hyponym shares a "type-of" relationship with its hypernym. For example, "pigeon", "crow", "eagle" and "seagull" are all hyponyms of "bird" (their hyperonym); which, in turn, is a hyponym of "animal".

Onomatopoeia An onomatopoeia ( ,; from the Greek ὀνοματοποιία; ὄνομα for "name" and ποιέω for "I make", adjectival form: "onomatopoeic" or "onomatopoetic") is a word that phonetically imitates, resembles or suggests the sound that it describes. As an uncountable noun, "onomatopoeia" refers to the property of such words. Common occurrences of onomatopoeia include animal noises such as "oink", "miaow" (or "meow"), "roar" and "chirp". Onomatopoeia can differ between languages: it conforms to some extent to the broader linguistic system; hence the sound of a clock may be expressed as "tick tock" in English, "dī dā" in Mandarin, or "katchin katchin" in Japanese, or "tik-tik" (टिक-टिक) in Hindi.

Linux on z Systems Linux on z Systems (or Linux on z for short, and previously "Linux on System z") is the collective term for the Linux operating system compiled to run on IBM mainframes, especially IBM z Systems and IBM LinuxONE servers. Similar terms which imply the same meaning are "Linux on zEnterprise", "Linux on zSeries", "Linux/390", "Linux/390x," etc. The terms "zLinux" or "z/Linux" are also sometimes used, but these terms are discouraged by IBM as they create the implication of an IBM-offered or IBM-distributed version of Linux, which is incorrect. (Further, "zLinux" without the slash is definitely incorrect, as it's software, and software takes a slash: z/VM, z/OS, z/VSE, et al.; hardware does not: z900, z13, et al.)

Reverse domain name notation Reverse domain name notation (or reverse-DNS) is a naming convention for the components, packages, and types used by a programming language, system or framework. A characteristic of reverse-DNS strings is that they are based on registered domain names, and are only reversed for sorting purposes. For example, if a company making a product called "MyProduct" has the registered domain name "example.com", they could use the reverse-DNS string "com.example.MyProduct" to describe it. Reverse-DNS names are a simple way of reducing name-space collisions, since any domain name is registered by only one party at a time.

Phraseology In linguistics, phraseology is the study of set or fixed expressions, such as idioms, phrasal verbs, and other types of multi-word lexical units (often collectively referred to as "phrasemes"), in which the component parts of the expression take on a meaning more specific than or otherwise not predictable from the sum of their meanings when used independently. For example, ‘Dutch auction’ is composed of the words "Dutch" ‘of or pertaining to the Netherlands’ and "auction" ‘a public sale in which goods are sold to the highest bidder’, but its meaning is not ‘a sale in the Netherlands where goods are sold to the highest bidder’. Instead, the phrase has a conventionalized meaning referring to any auction where, instead of rising, the prices fall.

Passphrase A passphrase is a sequence of words or other text used to control access to a computer system, program or data. A passphrase is similar to a password in usage, but is generally longer for added security. Passphrases are often used to control both access to, and operation of, cryptographic programs and systems, especially those that derive an encryption key from a passphrase. The origin of the term is by analogy with "password". The modern concept of passphrases is believed to have been invented by Sigmund N. Porter in 1982.
