"The meaning of the noun word "Truth"

 
     The noun word "truth" is a simple word, it has one basic definition, and in 2024, this is a word that matters, the direction of our nation depends on defining the word "truth."
   Unequivocally, according to Merriam-webster.com, the word "Truth" is, "...in accordance with fact..," and wikipedia.org indicates that, "...truth is the opposite of a false statement.
    However, dictionary.cambridge.org has other kinds of "truth," for example, there are seven other kinds of truth, such as "God's truth is "...said to emphasize that something is the complete truth..."  And all the other six "truths" are variations of the Merriam-webster.com a basic definition, "...in accordance with fact.
    Moreover, when defining the noun word "truth" clearly, this is a word that has one basic definition.
     As well, "truth" is not a prediction, nor does "truth" change when another statement is issued.
     If a video of a previous statement by a person is shown, then another newer version is not "truth," it's a new statement, until another version is issued, and then all the versions of the same "truth" are newer modified statements, the question then becomes, which statement is the "truth"?
     One could ask if "truth" can change, then is it still "truth"?
    There is no doubt that "truth" doesn't change when expressing the "truth" of an active current issue, but stating the "truth" has nothing to do with expediency, for instance, for members of the government, whether it be state or federal, the "truth" is a statement on an issue, if that statement changes, then the "truth" is not an "explanation for a newer belief, the change then must be tested with a version of the "truth" which is by Merriam-webster.com then "...in accordance with fact..."
     Only you can determine whether a newer statement that changes "truth" is offered by an individual whose past "truth" based actions are verifiable.
      Thus it can be said, "truth" has a test.

The meaning of the words "grey" and "secrecy"

 
      The two sources I found regarding the definition of the word "grey" have a number  reference to refer to, but for a definition that does not refer to the color of the hair, that number is a "5."
      The indication is that the word "grey" as a "noun" connotes another kind of attribute that can indicate a government transparency reference  as it does in the merriam-webster.com, but collinsdictionary.com references the "dull and boring" aspect of a multifaceted word
      However, when used as a verb, the "grey" word denotes the color.
      The word "secrecy" is a noun—the merriam-webster.com source, defines the word "secrecy" the same as cambridge.org, using examples of how the word "secrecy" refers specifically to government, but dictionary.com used an example of the word "secrecy" that can connote the openness of a corporate entity, as it isn't always just government that seeks the full definition of the word "secrecy" to keep employees and/or outsiders ignorant of the corporate ethos.
       Why define the words "grey" and "secrecy"? 
      The 21st century's year 2024, is an election year, and my research sources have indicated the definition of those two words "grey" and "secrecy" can offer an insight as to how these particular words are used by journalists to indicate their point of view.
       Sadly, my research also indicates we are currently in an era when major media may not always present the news without a POV.
     Therefore, my conclusion is that a reader cannot always trust an article purporting to refer to a news report is unbiased, thus the definitions I've researched can alert a reader as to whether the reported news is a journalists' altered opinion interpretation of the event.

The word "plastic" defined for the 21st century

 
     From my research, I've determined that the noun word "plastic" was originally a boon, so said those who followed up with practical items that soon became important features for society to use, however, that wasn't sufficient for those who intended to use plastic in ways never thought of before.
     As I also found out, the word "plastic" is coined for a modern society, for instance when used a credit card, but then when used as a description of something supple, this word becomes an adjective, nonetheless, for the 21st century this word has an all encompassing effect that includes the industrial adaptions which now scientists and the medical professions say threatens the health and welfare of global society for decades henceforth, moreover, all of us should consider the importance of weighing in as to whether it is necessary to avoid using what has become a ubiquitous part of living in the 21st century.
     Regardless, I continue to believe examining all aspects of the word "plastic" is necessary now, rather than later.
     To remind us that time is not in our favor when considering the negatives of the continued and unabated use of what can badly affect or global society in ways yet not imagined, we in the USA can demand and insure that it is the duty of the so-called "green" friendly states to do more than pass laws to limit giving out the free plastic bags to hold the items purchased.
     Contact your representatives for congress and your state assembly to demand more be done to limit the use of plastic for wrapping foods plus the thick rock hard molds covering whatever we buy for other uses.
