Any attempt to define "residential tenancy" is difficult. If one could define "tenancy", one would still be faced with the problem of defining "residential", which really involves an attempt to exclude "commercial" and "agricultural". We begin with "tenancy", which is simply a term descriptive of the interest in land acquired by a tenant from his landlord. In the more technical language of a common law property lawyer, the tenant's interest in land is a "non-freehold estate".... The next definitional problem is the term "residential". Fortunately, this term involves economic rather than legal concepts. We propose to define "residential premises" as a self-contained dwelling unit, and "residential tenancy" as a tenancy of residential premises for primarily residential purposes. Our proposed Act is not intended to apply to a tenancy for primarily commercial or agricultural purpose.(Alberta Law Reform Institute, Report on Residential Tenancies, 1977, pp. 10-11).  1, record 1, English, - residential%20tenancy

Discussions about "biotech labeling", particularly the public debate, often do not involve any definitions or explanations of what actually is covered or required, either in terms of "biotech" or "labeling". Both words can describe a variety of different technologies or label language. In a definitional sense, perhaps in contrast to consumer perception, the word "biotechnology" is a collective term encompassing a number of technologies, some old, others new(Korwek, 1997). The Office of Technology Assessment(OTA, 1984) defined it as processes using living organisms or parts thereof to make or modify products, to improve plants, animals, or to develop microorganisms for specific uses. This definition and others make it clear that the term "biotechnology" can be broad, encompassing a variety of traditional technologies and products thereof, such as bread, cheese, and hybrid corn, as well as newer genetic technologies, such as recombinant DNA(rDNA) techniques.  1, record 2, English, - biotech%20labelling
