Are you referring to a particular µP/µC?

I sense that you're translating from another language. Where did this terminology come from? I've never heard it. In 32 years of using Forth, I've only ever heard of primitives also being called "code definitions," and words defined in terms of other words being called "secondaries" or "colon definitions."
