exit status
: A unit of text that is the result of one of the shell expansions. After expansion, when executing a command, the resulting fields are used as the command name and arguments.

process group
: A collection of related processes each having the same process group ID. 

process group ID
: A unique identifier that represents a process group during its lifetime. 

reserved word
: A word that has a special meaning to the shell. Most reserved words introduce shell flow control constructs, such as for and while. 

return status
: A synonym for exit status.

signal
: A mechanism by which a process may be notified by the kernel of an event occurring in the system. 

special builtin
: A shell builtin command that has been classified as special by the POSIX standard.
