;<span id="glossary_termglossary term">Glossary Term</span>: Definition of the term.

;<span id="active_personactive person">Active Person</span>: (''core concept'') - The person designated (or 'selected') as the momentary center of focus in the open Gramps database. The perspective of this person defines the context for actions and for displaying all the surrounding information. Changing this focus is done by [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Setting_the_Active_Person|navigating the Active Person]] selection to another person.

;<span id="anglicisation"><span id="anglicization">anglicisation</span></span>:

;<span id="event_roleeven role">event role</span>: The [[#role|role]] a [[#person|Person]] plays in an [[#Event|Event]]. The focal Person(s) holds a [[#primary|'''''Primary role''''']] in personal Events and the Family holds a [[#family_role|'''''Family role''''']] in Family events. In Gramps, an Event can be linked to as many participants as desired. Each [[#person|Person]] may participate in different roles but more than one Person might play the same role. The Event Role captures this and can be changed in the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Event_Reference_Editor_dialog|Event Reference Editor]]. Some common Roles are pre-defined but the user can add other [[#custom|custom]] Roles by just typing in the appropriate new label into the [[#selector_combo_box|selector combo box]].

;<span id="event_typeevent type">event type</span>: The general denominator to which an event belongs, <abbr title="exempli gratia - Latin phrase meaning 'for example'">e.g.</abbr>, a christian, civil, tibetan, ... marriage, are all denoted by the event type ''marriage''. See [[events in Gramps]] for an overview.

#'''<span id="family_rolefamily role">Family</span>''' (''[[#event_role|event role]]'') An event can be coupled to a family, denoting that the both partners were equally involved in the event. Typically, the Marriage event will be coupled to a family with event role ''family''. '''Family''' is the ''default'' role when adding a new Event in the [[#edit_family|Edit Family]] dialog.

;<span id="grampsweb"><span id="gramps_webgramps web">Gramps Web for Servers</span></span>: [https://gramps-project.org/blog/web/ Gramps Web] is collaborative interface (frontend) and backend created by David M. Straub for running the Gramps genealogy database engine on servers. It is one of the [[Web_Solutions_for_Gramps|Web Solutions for Gramps]].<br />It is a multi-user system genealogical web application with different levels of options for Visitors, Members, Contributors, Editors, and Owners. Trees in [[https://www.grampsweb.org Gramps Web on a server]] can be synchronized with the more mature and feature laden [[#gramps|Gramps for Desktops]]. Single Tree or multiple Tree sites can be self-managed on a hosted service from an ISP, leased from a managed hosting ISP, or leased from an application-specific fully managed CMS provider, or installed locally for access from a local area network.

;<span id="home_personhome person">Home Person</span>: (''core concept'') - The persistently designated '''Home Person''' is the foundational [[#person|Person]] (the [[Genealogy_Glossary#proband|Proband]], [[Genealogy_Glossary#progenitor|Progenitor]], or [[Genealogy_Glossary#progenitrix|Progenitrix]]) in the Tree (the currently open Gramps database). This Person is the central target of genealogical research and family references extend from this center. Ideally, every person, event and source in the Tree will (however directly or indirectly) relate back to the '''Home Person'''.<br />By default, the database reports describe everything else in contextual relation to this person. The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Status_Bar_and_Progress_Bar|Status Bar]], the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Quick_View|Quick View]] called "[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_8#Relation_to_Home_Person|Relation to Home Person]]", and the Third party addon [[#gramplet|Gramplet]] called "[[Addon:Deep_Connections_Gramplet|Deep Connections]]" all describe different aspects of the relationship of the [[#active_person|Active Person]] to the '''Home Person'''.<br />You (or your client) are customarily designated ([[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Setting_Home_person|set]]) as the Home Person. And this ''Home'' designation serves as a persistent point of reference for the rest of the Tree in Reports generally and for the Active Person in detail. But a different '''Home Person''' might be temporarily [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Setting_Home_person|set]] when generating reports or when researching a complex biography or obituary. <Br />Fascinating tidbits often lure Gramps researchers into wandering off-course. When the [[#active_person|Active Person]] has become lost, the bearings can be instantly regained by navigating the [[#active_person|Active Person]] selection back to the '''Home Person'''.<br /><small>Navigate to '''Home Person''' - ''keyboard shortcut''</small> {{man key press|Alt|Home}} or press the toolbar <!-- broken icon {{icon|thom}}-->[[File:Gramps_Go-Home48x48 win.png|text-bottom|20px]]{{man button|Home}} button. <br />The custom filter rule for finding the '''Home Person''' is in a People category filter under the General filters and was named 'Default person' until the 5.1 version.

;<span id="primary_objectprimary object">Primary object</span>: Primary objects are the [[Using_database_API|data structures]] at the top level of a [[Gramps_Data_Model|hierarchical collection of records]] in the Gramps [[Gramps_Data_Model|data model]]. Beside the main structure of data, they can contain a hierarchy of [[#secondary_object|secondary objects]], and can be referenced by other primary or secondary objects. In the Gramps database, primary objects and the secondary objects that they contain are stored as separate records. Each primary object type is stored in a separate table. See [[Using_database_API#Primary_Objects|Using database API, Primary Objects]] (see also ''[[#secondary_object|secondary object]]'')

;[[File:Gramps-relation.png|right]]<span id="references_tabreferences tab">References tab</span>: a system of linking between objects in Gramps. When objects of Gramps are linked, the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#References|References tab]] lists the objects to link toward it.

;<span id="secondary_objectsecondary object">secondary object</span>: Secondary objects are contained within other [[#object|objects]] of the structured Gramps [[Gramps_Data_Model|data model]], and cannot be referenced directly. They can contain other secondary objects. Examples include: Name, Date and Address. See [[Using_database_API#Secondary_Objects|Using database API, Secondary Objects]] (see also ''[[#primary_object|primary object]]'')

;<span id="selector_combo_boxselector combo box">Selector combo box</span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Selector_Combo_Boxes|standard text entry box paired with pull-down list button]] is a [https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/visual_index.html Gtk toolbox widget] (based on the standard [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Combo_box combo box]). The combination of a drop-down list and a single-line editable textbox allows the user to: either key in a value directly; or, select a value from the list. Moreover, keying in a value that is not already in the list will add that [[#custom|custom type]] to the drop-down list.

;<span id="swatch"><span id="color_swatchcolor swatch">Swatch</span></span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Pick_a_Color_selector|color swatch]] is a sample square of a color or color pattern. Swatches may be dragged from the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Pick_a_Color_selector|Pick a Color selector]] to apply that specific color to preferences.

;<span id="user_directoryuser directory">User Directory</span>: (''core concept'') An alias for the file folder (directory) location where customizations (<abbr title="exempli gratia - Latin phrase meaning 'for example'">e.g.</abbr>: preferences files, [[#addon|addons]], [[#plugin|plugins]]) are stored for the Gramps family of genealogy tools. Since this folder location varies by which Operating System and which Gramps fork has been installed, the '''User Directory''' is an 'alias' (a.k.a. placeholder) used in instructions about re-configuring Gramps. <br />This alias allows [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_User_Directory|instructions for locating your specific '''User Directory''' file location]] to be consolidated in the documentation.
