;<span id="administrative division">administrative division</span>: A unit of a layered system subdividing a geopolitical (geographic or political) region. Such divisions are recorded as [[#place|Place]] Types in Gramps. Meanwhile the structure of a Place Tree is built by layering via the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Enclosed_By|'Enclosed by' tab in the Place Editor.]] The subdivisions are sometimes categorized as an entity, locality, area, or region. The terms of subnational entity, constituent unit, or country subdivision tend to imply divisions that are more related to political representation than administrative. <br />: See wikipedia's [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Administrative_division Administrative division] for a conceptional definition or [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_administrative_divisions_by_country List of administrative divisions by country] for specific countries.

;<span id="clergy">Clergy</span>: ''([[#event_role|event role]])'' A term applied to a religious person regardless of religion. For example, a monk or priest. See also: ''[[#celebrant|celebrant]]''.<br />: <small>Religious terminology is often subject to dispute, see the [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/clergy Merriam-Webster] for an independent definition.</small>

;[[File:Gramps_Clipboard48x48_win.png|right]]<span id="clipboard">Clipboard</span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Using_the_Clipboard|Gramps Clipboard]] is a shortcut system for [[#sharing|sharing]] a [[#secondary_object|secondary]] object, navigation, and custom [[#filter|filter]] creation. <br />: '''Usage:''' The Clipboard can be opened from a icon on the [[#toolbar|Toolbar]], from the Edit -> Clipboard menu choice or by using the Copy [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Keybindings#7|keybinding]] for the Active Record in the Active main view of a View category. A floating clipboard dialog that has become buried can be brought to the top of the stack by selecting '''Clipboard...''' from the Windows menu.<br />: <small>The Clipboard can greatly improve data entry efficiency, see the "[[How_to_use_the_Gramps_Clipboard|How to use the Gramps Clipboard]]" article for more information.</small>

:When none of the pre-defined Types are suitable, add a new ''[[#custom|custom]]'' Type by typewriting directly into the [[#selector_combo_box|selector combo box]]. If the value doesn't precisely match any of the existing menu items, a new ''custom'' Type will be created when the {{man button|OK}} button is clicked. <br />: Any added ''custom'' Type will remain available in that expanded menu... unless the Tree is exported and re-imported or removed via a [[Third-party_Addons|Third party addon]] Utility like [[Addon:Types_Cleanup_Tool|Type Cleanup]].<br />: <small>'''''custom'' Types''' can be defined for: Event [[#attribute|Attributes]], Family [[#attribute|Attributes]], media [[#attribute|Attributes]], Person [[#attribute|Attributes]], [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#General|Event Roles]], [[Custom_Event_Types|Event types]], Family [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Relationship_Information|Relationship Information]] types, [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Child_Reference_Editor|Child Reference]] Types, [[Names_in_Gramps#Origin_Attributes|Name Origin Types]], [[Names_in_Gramps#Name_Types|Names Types]], [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data%3A_detailed_-_part_2#Note_editor_dialog|Note Types]], [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data%3A_detailed_-_part_2#Place_Editor_dialog|Place Types]], [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Repository_Reference_Editor|Repository]] Types, Source [[#attribute|Attributes]], [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Repository_Reference_Editor|Repository]] Media Types, [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Internet_Address_Editor|Internet Address (URL)]] Types.</small>

;<span id="date">date</span>: ''([[#secondary_object|sec. obj.]])'' - Dates in Gramps are much more complex than just a month, day, and year. Dates are always in a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Calendars|particular calendar]], can span a time frame with the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Date_Type|Date Type]], the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Date_Quality|Date Quality]] can be exact (or an approximation variant), and have support for many other subtleties specific to genealogy data. The approximation can be fine-tuned with the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Limits|Limits]] preferences.<br />: The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Date_formats_and_parsing_rules|date parsing rules]] are applied whenever data is entered into a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Editing_dates|date text field]] or a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Date_selection_dialog|date selection dialog]].

;<span id="dock"><span id="undock">Dock</span></span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - A [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Pop-up_menus|dock]] is one of the multitude of containers offering controlled access and context to Gramplets. Gramplets can be added to, removed from, or undocked from a container to float free of the main window.<br />: The Dashboard was the original container and can be configured with multiple columns and stacks of Gramplets. The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Bottombar_and_Sidebar|sidebar and bottombar splitbars]] are Category-specific containers. The splitbars only show a single gramplet at a time but with tabs to quickly switch between them. Each view mode has its own set of splitbars. So the basic configuration of Gramps has the Dashboard plus 24 Category view modes... or 49 separate gramplet containers.

;[[File:Gramps-event.png|right]]<span id="event">Event</span>: ''({{icon|even}} [[#primary_object|prim. obj.]])'' - Contains the information related to an happening. [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_2#Editing_information_about_events|Adding an Event record]] provides the context of an interaction of the roles of People/Families, dates & places in activities.<br />: An Event is a defining moment in a person's life. See [[events in Gramps|events]] for the use in genealogy, for predefined events in Gramps and suggested naming for [[Events_in_Gramps|common events]].

#[[File:Gramps-family.png|right]]'''Family''' ''({{icon|fami}} [[#primary_object|prim. obj.]])'' - Contains the information specific to relationships between people. The information may be edited directly using the {{man label|[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_detailed_-_part_1#Editing_information_about_relationships|Edit Family]]}} dialog.<br />This traditionally contains one or two parents and zero or more children. A family unit is created in Gramps by [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Entering_and_editing_data:_brief#Specifying_a_relationship_using_the_Relationship_View|adding Parents to an individual]], by [[Add_a_spouse|adding a partner/spouse]] to an individual, or by adding a family first then adding the people. (A family can even consist of just the offspring.)<br />The Family relationship is a core concept in Gramps. It depicts the basic relations between people. Commonly this will contain a father, a mother and some children, however, it can also contain only parts of this (<abbr title="exempli gratia - Latin phrase meaning 'for example'">e.g.</abbr>, two brothers, a mother and child). People can be part of several families (adoption, remarried, ...)

: A [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters|filter]] (<abbr title="also known as — abbreviation used to indicate another name that a person/thing has/uses">''aka''</abbr> query) in a database finds (or hides by 'filtering out') records, displaying only those records that match certain criteria. (The criteria are comparison or query [[#rule|rules]] describing some attribute of a record.) Layers of criteria can be applied but each layer requires additional processing and slows performance of the interface. <br />: The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Filter_vs._Search|basic Search]] is a single criteria filter. The search value is compares only one attribute of a record that has been selected from a pop-up menu.

: A [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Custom_Filters|Custom Filter]] adds richly complex [[#rule|Rules]]-based comparison with [[Example_filters|layers of intersection]] options for those rules. Custom Filters allow repeatable filters to be created with pre-defined rules and values to be matched. Beyond interactively hiding (or revealing) records in views, Custom Filters are used to set limits for exporting, setting scopes for reports, and targeting tool actions.<br />: In addition to the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Which_filter_rules_in_which_Category.3F|builtin rules]] for filtering, [[Addon:Rule expansions]] are available for Custom Filters.

;<span id="gramplet">Gramplet</span>: A [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#definition|Gramplet]] is a plug-in (<abbr title="also known as — abbreviation used to indicate another name that a person/thing has/uses">''aka''</abbr> [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_widget widget] or [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Applet applet]) that can be [[#dock|docked]] in the {{icon|gram}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Dashboard_Category|Dashboard]] category view. Later [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Bottombar_and_Sidebar|sidebar or bottombar]] were added to the remaining [[#view|views]] to extend [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Gramplet_Bar_Menu|adding]] and [[#undock|undocking]] a Gramplet functionality of those view. <br />: Gramplets dynamically update as the different records are selected in the main display area of a view. Gramplets typically create an alternate interface to your Family Tree data. Collections of [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Summary_of_Gramplets|builtin]] and [[{{man version}}_Addons#Addon_List|"3rd party addon"]] gramplets are available for [[{{man version}}_Addons#Installing_Addons_in_Gramps|installation]] and download with the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Plugin_Manager|Plug-in Manager]]. The Plug-in Manager also regulates a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Aren.27t_all_Plugins_also_Gramplets.3F|wide variety of other builtin and addons]] which can expand functionality unrelated to the interface.:''See the [[Gramplets development]] for independent information.''

;<span id="gramps">Gramps for Desktops</span>: [https://gramps-project.org/blog/features/ Gramps] is an open-source genealogy application, a free software project and community. <br />: '''Gramps''' is an affectionate nickname for a "Grandfather". Originally, the all capital letter [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Backronym backronym] stood for "'''G'''enealogical '''R'''esearch and '''A'''nalysis '''M'''anagement '''P'''rogramming '''S'''ystem" and was coined by Larry Allingham. ([https://gramps-project.org/blog/2006/04/looking-back-over-5-years/ GRAMPS was created around 2001] by [[User:Don|Don Allingham]] for use by his father, Larry.) This backronym was phased out around March 2010 in favor of '''Gramps''' as the official name of the software. All upper-case acronym-based names have become unfashionable for software.''

;<span id="grampsweb"><span id="gramps 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.

:The specific interface elements are identified by customary name, general appearance & behavior in the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window|Visual Guide to Gramps Interface]]. Expansion interface elements are described in the user documentation for [[{{man version}}_Addons|each specific addon]].<br />:The '''Gramps Web''' GUI (or frontend) is a platform-agnostic web browser interface built with the [https://lit.dev/ Lit] lightweight JavaScript library for building fast, interoperable web components. Although the hosting side requires a webmaster with significant skills, genealogical collaborators can use web browser on almost any device.

;<span id="home 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.

: The types of [[Using_database_API#Primary_Objects|primary objects]] are: <br />: {{icon|cite}} [[#citation|Citation]], {{icon|even}} [[#event|Event]], {{icon|fami}} [[#family|Family]], {{icon|medi}} [[#media|Media]], {{icon|note}} [[#note|Note]], {{icon|peop}} [[#person|Person]], {{icon|plac}} [[#place|Place]], {{icon|repo}} [[#repository|Repository]], {{icon|sour34}} [[#source|Source]], [[File:16x16-gramps-tag.png]] [[#tag|Tag]].

;<span id="quickview">Quick View</span>: On-screen [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_8#Quick_Views|reports]] about information surrounding the active object that do not print or save to file. Generally the report is selected from a [[#context_menu|context menu]] for the selected category of record and will have no configurable options. <br />: The [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Quick_View|Quick View '''gramplet''']] refreshes a builtin [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Reports_-_part_8#Quick_Views|builtin]] or [[{{man version}}_Addons#Addon_List|addon]] QuickView reports as the focus of the active record is changed. The specific QuickView report is selected in a view configuration dialog opened with the {{man menu|View -> Configure...}} menu.

:<span id="reference information"><span id="shared information">Object descriptions are grouped in two distinct sections: <br />: &nbsp;&bull; The '''Reference Information''' section contains information unique to one instance. <br />: &nbsp;&bull; The '''Shared Information''' of an object will be seen in all instances that are linked to it.</span></span>

;[[File:gramps-tag.png|right]]<span id="tag">Tag</span>: ''([[File:16x16-gramps-tag.png]] [[#primary_object|prim. obj.]])'' - A custom titled and color-coded label that [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#Tagging|can be created with the Organize Tags dialog and attached]] to selected {{icon|cite}} [[#citation|Citation]], {{icon|even}} [[#event|Event]], {{icon|fami}} [[#family|Family]], {{icon|medi}} [[#media|Media]], {{icon|note}} [[#note|Note]], {{icon|peop}} [[#person|Person]], {{icon|plac}} [[#place|Place]], {{icon|repo}} [[#repository|Repository]] or {{icon|sour34}} [[#source|Source]] objects for the purpose of easy identification and filtering.<br />: A keyword or phrase used to group the collection to produce a report. Multiple tags may be used to label and categorize objects into multiple groups when filtering by other attributes is not viable.

;<span id="user 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.

;<span id="viewcategory"><span id="view category"><span id="view">View category</span></span></span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window|'''View category''']] (often simply called a "'''[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window|View]]'''") is a Gramps-specific name for the collection of [[#view mode|View modes]] (display layouts) presenting information in a structured and predictable manner. Different Views are selected from the [[#navigator|Navigator]] (left sidebar), <br />.: Layouts are in table, outline or graphical formats; , depending on the preferred way to represent how the data elements relate to on one another. <br />: Gramps divides and organizes the information about each [[#primary_object|Primary Object]] into a series of [[#category|Categories]], each with their own View. Each of the Category Views displays a smaller, more digestible portion of the total information that comprises a Genealogical Tree. The View categories are: <span id="dashboard view">{{icon|gram}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Dashboard_Category|Dashboard]]</span>, <span id="people view">{{icon|peop}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#People_Category|People]]</span>, <span id="relationships view">{{icon|rela}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Relationships_Category|Relationships]]</span>, <span id="families view">{{icon|fami}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Families_Category|Families]]</span>, <span id="charts view">{{icon|ance}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Charts_Category|Charts]]</span>, <span id="events view">{{icon|even}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Events_Category|Events]]</span>, <span id="places view">{{icon|plac}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Places_Category|Places]]</span>, <span id="geography view">{{icon|geog}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Geography_Category|Geography]]</span>, <span id="sources view">{{icon|sour34}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Sources_Category|Sources]]</span>, <span id="citations view">{{icon|cite}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Citations_Category|Citations]]</span>, <span id="repositories view">{{icon|repo}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Repositories_Category|Repositories]]</span>, <span id="media view">{{icon|medi}}&nbsp;[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Media_Category|Media]]</span>, <span id="notes view">{{icon|note}}&nbsp;<span id="notes view">[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Notes_Category|Notes]]</span>

;<span id="viewmode"><span id="view mode">View mode</span></span>: ''([[#gui|graphical user interface terminology]])'' - a '''[[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window|View mode]]''' is a Gramps-specific name for the display layouts presenting [[#view_category|View category]] information in a structured and predictable manner. A [[#view_category|View category]] may have alternate '''view modes''' (subcategories) of display layout. (<abbr title="exempli gratia - Latin phrase meaning 'for example'">e.g.</abbr>, Views with Table layouts might have flat listed or hierarchically grouped modes.) Navigating between View modes is from the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Toolbar|toolbar]] and [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Switching_Navigator_modes|Navigator]]. <br />: Each mode of a category can be independently [[File:Gramps-config.png|22px]]&nbsp;configured. Each mode may maintain a separate object selection, filtering, and organization for its Gramplet bars.<br />: View data may be further subdivided with tabbed pages of layouts.

;<span id="xml">XML</span>: acronym: [https://wikipedia.org/wiki/XML E'''x'''tensible '''M'''arkup '''L'''anguage]. A schema used to define the expected structure of data in a text format. The system annotates a document in a way that data elements are syntactically distinguishable from identifying tags. A markup language defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a fault tolerant format that is both (marginally) human-readable and machine-readable. <br />: Gramps will [[Generate_XML|generate XML]] format natively in compressed and uncompressed forms identified with a <code>.gramps</code> or <code>.gpkg</code> file extension. It is the format that definitively supports every piece of genealogical data stored by Gramps. Used as the working format until Gramps 2.0 started using a ''[[Database_Backends|database backend]]'' to improve performance, XML is now the standard Tree data backup format and recommended data exchange format.<br />: See the [https://www.gramps-project.org/xml/ reference documentation for the versions] of Gramps [[Gramps_XML#RELAX_NG_generation|RELAX NG]] ('''RE'''gular '''LA'''nguage for '''X'''ML '''N'''ext '''G'''eneration)(<code>.rng</code>) schema XML and [[#dtd|DTD]]

Do not replace a space in the anchor ID with an underscore. An anchor defined with a space can match both the underscore and space form, but an an anchor defined with an underscore can only be referenced by the underscore form.
