- A word written in single quotes '...' within the :term:`source
- file`, usually (but not exclusively) as one of the values assigned
- to an object's ``name`` property. All such words are stored in the
- :term:`dictionary`, which is consulted by the :term:`parser` when
- attempting to make sense of a player's command. Only the first
- nine characters are significant (thus ``'cardiogram'`` and
- ``'cardiograph'`` are treated as the same word). Use
- ``'coins//p'`` to mark "``coins``" as plural, referring to all coin
- objects which are present. Use ``'t//'`` to enter the
- single-character word "t" into the dictionary (``'t'`` is a
- constant representing a character value).
