A quick definition of cancel:

Cancel: To make something no longer valid or in effect. For example, if you write a check and then cross it out or write "void" on it, it can no longer be used as money. You can also cancel a contract, which means you don't have to do what it says anymore. This usually happens if the other person breaks the contract or if you both agree to cancel it. Canceling something is also called rescinding or terminating it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To cancel something means to make it no longer valid or in effect. This can happen in a legal context, such as when a person cancels a contract or voids a check. When something is cancelled, it cannot be used or enforced anymore.

  • If you write a check and then decide not to use it, you can cancel it by tearing it up or writing "void" on it.
  • A person might cancel a contract if the other party breaches the terms or if both parties agree to terminate it.

These examples illustrate how cancelling something can render it no longer valid or enforceable. In the case of a cancelled check, it cannot be cashed or used as legal tender. In the case of a cancelled contract, the parties are released from their obligations under the agreement.
