Abstract
The relationship between language and learning has always been as complex as it is fascinating, a fluid interplay of words that convey and define the very essence of pedagogy. It is within this intricate landscape that my journey as a writer and an educator began, and it is this journey that has shaped the creation of Coming to Terms: Clarifying Pedagogical Language for Teaching and Research. In this book, I delve into the etymology, historical usage, and present-day application of selected pairs of specific words that are often mistakenly viewed as synonymous. My hope is that through careful examination, readers will develop a clearer understanding of how language evolves and impacts the educational discourse, leading to the correct usage of terms vital to both teaching and research.
