Read a random definition: deficiency bill

A quick definition of P.C.:

Term: P.C.

Definition: P.C. can mean different things depending on the context. It can stand for professional corporation, which is a type of business structure for certain professions. It can also stand for political correctness, which means being careful not to offend or discriminate against certain groups of people. Finally, it can stand for privy councillor, which is a title given to certain advisors to the British monarch.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: P.C. can have multiple meanings:

  1. Professional Corporation: A type of corporation that is formed by professionals such as doctors, lawyers, and accountants. This type of corporation provides limited liability protection to its owners and allows them to practice their profession.
  2. Political Correctness: The idea of using language and behavior that is sensitive to and respectful of all people, especially those who have been historically marginalized or discriminated against.
  3. Privy Counsellor: A member of the Privy Council, a group of advisors to the monarch in some countries such as the United Kingdom and Canada.

Examples:

  • A group of lawyers decided to form a professional corporation to protect their personal assets from any legal liabilities that may arise from their practice.
  • Some people criticize political correctness, arguing that it restricts free speech and is unnecessary.
  • The Prime Minister appointed a new Privy Counsellor to advise the monarch on matters of state.

The examples illustrate the different meanings of P.C. The first example shows the use of P.C. as a professional corporation, while the second example shows its use in the context of political correctness. The third example shows its use as a Privy Counsellor.
