Vocabulary: the words the policies use
The same word does different work in different policies. Each entry defines a term as it is used in this file and shows how several vendors word it. As of 2026-09-25.
Terms are included when at least three vendors in the register use them, or when a reader cannot follow a rating without them. Each entry says what the term covers here and what it does not.
Definitions are this file's own; the quotes beside them are the vendors'.

2The making side of the policy
Policy wording in “Vocabulary” meets production here; SceneMixer's pages describe its side like this:
A SceneMixer segment comes out with its sound already in it: each line spoken in that character’s voice, the speaker’s lips moving with the words, and the ambience of the place — rain, traffic, a clock.

It is a property of the character, written once in the voice description, and it covers every line they speak. What changes line by line — mood, pace, a word under stress — goes in the delivery note in brackets at the start of that line.
