| Resumen: | Over the last two decades, considerable strides have been made in constructing a single, self-consistent, conceptual scheme for quality in chemical measurement (and, indeed, all measurement). In the course of that effort, concepts are being clarified and refined, and the corresponding terminology is necessarily following suit. Terms that were vague or ambiguous are being eliminated or redefined. As a result it is now easier for us analytical chemists to say exactly what we mean, and we should make every attempt to do so, especially in formal writing. Nicety in the use of terminology is not just pedantry. If we misuse words, then we run the risk of confusing others and, just as importantly, ourselves. |
