TechnicalRegister
Medicine noun
The instructions on a prescription telling the patient how and when to take the medicine, transcribed onto the dispensing label.
The directions simply read 'as directed', so I had to ring the surgery to clarify the intended dose.
Law noun
Orders of the court regulating the steps the parties must take to prepare a case for trial, such as disclosure, exchange of statements and expert reports.
The parties were unable to agree directions, so the court imposed a timetable of its own.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
