Term for is a scripting addition that looks up the user terminology for a value. Useful for example to get month and day-of-week names of a date.

The addition builds the source of an AppleScript script containing what you pass in. Although it looks like you can pass in a variety of things, what actually arrives is either four or 8 bytes, which the addition treats as a string.

Note that this Scripting Addition is not necessary if you have Script Debugger, since you can write a script which uses Script Debugger to build and compile the necessary script, and dig the term out of the re-written script or the result of running the script.
