Maybe you could add "what are the TWO differences between use and require?" to your list of questions then.

    To be clear, I think it's important to understand what the concept of compile-time is.

    The question for BEGIN is just one possibility to activate a thought process...

    • sub declaration has compile- and run-time effects
    • my declaration has compile- and run-time effects

    The situation was that many people with different skills wanted to join a workshop, where most can't communicate what they need to know.

    I actually had to kick out one person who came unprepared and without former notice, and wanted to drag the whole workshop into his Delphi/Pascal world.

    As soon as my colleagues know at least the names of the "concepts" they will have the vocabulary to communicate without me being there.

    To give you a wider perspective, I'm just reading an important DSL book from a Java guy who constantly keeps using the word "closure" as synonym for "anonymous function" or "lambda". That's total BS, but quite common in other languages...
