Terms (law)

In a legal terminology, Terms can have different meanings, depending on the specific context.

In Trust Law, Terms generally refers to the Terms of the Trust, meaning the explicit written intention of the Grantor of a Trust. Terms are limited to provisions expressed in a way that makes them like proof in court. Terms of a Trust are most clear when they are explicit within the four corners of the Trust Instrument. However, since not all Trusts are explicit, some interpretation by courts may be necessary.

In Contract Law, Terms means Terms of a Contract, the conditions and warranties agreed upon between parties to the contract. Contract terms may be verbal or in writing. Conditions are those terms which are so important that one or more of the parties would not enter into the contract without them. Warranties are less important terms who's violation does not void the contract, but might entitle one of the parties to receive monetary damages.

In Property law and Constitutional law Terms may mean period(s) of time over which a lease, office, or other privilege is held.

List of Newspeak words

In George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, the fictional language Newspeak attempts to eliminate personal thought by restricting the expressiveness of the English language.

In keeping with the principles of Newspeak, all of the words listed here serve as both nouns and verbs; thus, crimethink is both the noun meaning "thoughtcrime" and the verb meaning "to commit thoughtcrime". To form an adjective, one adds the suffix "-ful" (e.g., crimethinkful) and to form an adverb, "-wise" (e.g., crimethinkwise). There are some irregular forms, such as the adjectival forms of Minitrue, Minipax, Miniplenty, and Miniluv (Ministry of Truth, Ministry of Peace, Ministry of Plenty, and Ministry of Love, respectively – all ministries of the active government in Nineteen Eighty-Four).

To say that something or somebody is the best, Newspeak uses doubleplusgood, while the worst would be doubleplusungood (e.g., "Big Brother is doubleplusgood, Emmanuel Goldstein is doubleplusungood").
