The first sentence of the first paragraph should show the headword(s) in '''boldface''' (as in Wikipedia). The first paragraph should basically contain the definition of the term. A second paragraph may be added for further explanation or contextualization.<br /> <br /> If the use of a term is restricted to a certain area of linguistics, this is best indicated by the first adverbial expression of the first sentence, e.g.<br /> *&quot;In Ancient Greek linguistics, an '''augment''' is a prefix (or sometimes a stem change) that serves to mark past tense.&quot;<br /> *&quot;In [[Functional Grammar]], a '''satellite''' is an expression not required by the [[predicate]] that gives additional optional information about a [[state of affairs]].&quot;<br /> <br /> If the term is not considered the best available term for the concept that it denotes, instead of a definition the first sentence should contain the expression &quot;...is a synonym of X&quot;, e.g.<br /> *&quot;In Indic linguistics, the term '''[[absolutive (2)|absolutive]]''' is sometimes used as a synonym of [[converb]].&quot;</div>
