| <term> | contains a single-word, multi-word or symbolic designation which
is regarded as a technical term. | 
| Attributes: | | type | classifies the term using some typology. |  |  | Datatype: CDATA |  |  | Values: any string of characters; for serious terminological work,
values should be taken from the dictionary of data element types
specified in ISO WD 12 620. |  |  | Default: #IMPLIED |  |  | Example: | 
 | 
| Example | A computational device that infers structure from grammatical
strings of words is known as a <term>parser</term>, and much
of the history of NLP over the last 20 years has been occupied
with the design of parsers. | 
| Example | We may define <term rend=sc id=tdpv>discoursal point of view</term>
as <gloss target=tdpv>the relationship, expressed through discourse
structure, between the implied author or some other addresser,
and the fiction.</gloss> | 
| Note | In formal terminological work, there is frequently
discussion over whether terms must be atomic or may include multi-word
lexical items, symbolic designations, or phraseological units.  The
<term>  element may be used to mark any of these.  No position is
taken on the philosophical issue of what a term can be; the looser
definition simply allows the <term>  element to be used by
practitioners of any persuasion. |
