In law school, you will spend a lot of time discussing the meaning of a singular word or placement of a comma.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt is also true that sometimes there is more than one way to say something, or multiple phrases may mean essentially the same thing. It can be tricky to hear both that every punctuation mark and word matters, and that you must be nimble enough to recognize when two sources are talking about the same concept in different terms. This lesson is designed to show you some examples both of precision, and of when two things essentially mean the same thing.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C!--break--\u003E\u003Ch3\u003ELearning Outcomes\u003C\/h3\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOn completion of the lesson, the student will be able to:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Col\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003ERecognize the importance of careful word choice and punctuation\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EEvaluate whether two terms or phrases have identical meanings\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EUnderstand that words may have meanings that are legal terms of art, outside of their common usage\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ol\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-lesson-completion-time\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Ch4\u003ELesson Completion Time\u003C\/h4\u003E\n  \n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-content\u0022\u003E\n      20 minutes    \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-lesson-authors-view\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Ch3\u003ELesson Authors\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-content\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022view view-lesson-authors view-id-lesson_authors view-display-id-block view-dom-id-d2545a5555980bb13dc7d67409c6c098\u0022\u003E\n        \n  \n  \n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022view-content\u0022\u003E\n      \n      \n          \u003Ca href=\u0022\/user\/791888\u0022\u003E\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022profile-photo round\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.cali.org\/sites\/default\/files\/user-profile-photos\/Allie%20Robbins%202023%20Photo.jpg\u0022 width=\u0022265\u0022 height=\u0022265\u0022 alt=\u0022\u0022 \/\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/a\u003E    \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022views-field views-field-nothing-1\u0022\u003E        \u003Cspan class=\u0022field-content\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-profile-block-text-fields\u0022\u003E\r\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-name-full\u0022\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022\/user\/791888\u0022\u003EAllie Robbins\u003C\/a\u003E\r\n\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-full-title\u0022\u003E\n    Managing Director of Institutional Partnerships at Helix Bar Review  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\r\n   \r\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022profile-block-field city-state\u0022\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n    \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\u003C\/div\u003E    \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022lesson-button\u0022\u003E\n      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003C\/article\u003E\n"}]
