Drupal leverages common words or phrases that have specific meaning in the community. Understanding this terminology is a significant enabler for those wanting to learn Drupal. Site builders who know the terminology can more rapidly evaluate community projects. Developers who read documentation can more effectively create custom modules. And, any community member up to speed on “Drupal-isms” will be far more prepared to collaborate...
