A mechanism is available for identifying specific definitions of words or phrases used in an unusual or restricted way, including idioms and jargon.
[ ] Providing the definition of a word or phrase used in an unusual or restricted way for the first occurrence of the word or phrase, If the word or phrase has a unique meaning within the Web page. Using one of the following techniques
Linking to definitions
To make the definition of a word, phrase, or abbreviation available by providing the definition, either within the same Web page or in a different Web page, and establishing a link between the item and its definition.
Using description list dt
Using the link element to link a glossary
Using inline definitions with dfn elements
Providing a glossary
Providing a function to search an online dictionary
This technique uses existing resources on the Web to provide the definition rather than requiring the author to create a glossary or other mechanism within the site. By providing access from within the Web page, a user can easily locate the desired definition. This technique can only be used if the online dictionary returns the correct definition.

<p>The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines require that non-text content
has a text alternative. <dfn>Non-text content</dfn> is content that is not a sequence
of characters that can be programmatically determined or where the sequence is
not expressing something in human language; this includes ASCII Art (which is a
pattern of characters), emoticons, leetspeak (which is character substitution), and
images representing text .</p>
Tests Procedure
Linking to definitions
For each word, phrase, or abbreviation to be defined:
Check that at least the first instance of the item is a link.
Check that each link navigates to the definition of the item.
Expected Results: all are true.
Using description lists
For any set of terms and their associated descriptions:
Check that the list is contained within a dl element.
Check that each term in the list being described is contained within a dt element.
Check that when there is more than one term that shares the same description that the dt elements immediately follow each other.
Check that the description for each term is contained in one or more dd elements.
Check that the one or more dd elements immediately follow the one or more dt elements containing the term being described.
Expected Results: all are true.
Using the link element to link to a glossary
For any set of words and their definitions that are meant to serve as a glossary:
Check that the head section of the Web page that contains words, phrases or abbreviations defined in a glossary contains a link element
Check that the link element has attribute rel="glossary"
Check that the href attribute of the link element refers to the glossary page.
Expected Results: all are true.
Using the dfn element to identify the defining instance of a word
Identify all words that are defined inline in the text, that is, where the definition occurs in a sentence near an occurrence of the word.
Check that each word that is defined inline is contained in a dfn element.
Expected Results: 2 is true.
Glossary
Check that either
The glossary is included in the Web page, or
A mechanism is available to locate the glossary.
Check that each word, phrase, or abbreviation to be defined is defined in the glossary
Check that the glossary contains only one definition for each item.
Expected Results: All three checks above are true.
Online dictionary
For each word, phrase, or abbreviation to be defined:
Check that a mechanism exists within the Web page to search for the word, phrase, or abbreviation via an on-line dictionary.
Check that the result of the search of the dictionary for the word, phrase, or abbreviation is the correct definition.
Expected Results: Checks 1 and 2 are true.
