'+Description+': Salesian English has chosen the more widely known term 'province' to designate what is known in a tradition stemming from Don Bosco himself as ''ispettoria'' in Italian. In his earliest Constitutions he made no specific provision for establishing 'provinces' as we understand them (i.e. territorial divisions under a canonical major superior), but did divide the Society as it was then into four 'inspectorates'. Rome called this an 'uncommon practice' and requested 'provinces' with due ecclesiastical (Holy See no less!) permission. Don Bosco continued to argue that Pope Pius IX had recommended the use of terms more consistent with the spirit of the [secular] times: "Therefore rather than call our houses 'monasteries', he suggested the term 'house, school (''collegio''), hostel (''ospizio''), or orphanage;' likewise, not 'father general', but 'rector major', not 'prior', or 'guardian', but 'director', not 'provincial or province', but some equivalent term". The idea won out, stuck and was reinforced by early General Chapters. Quite possibly for reasons of the same kind that were used by Don Bosco for choosing 'inspectorate', Salesians in an English-speaking context decided that this latter term would be inappropriate for them and chose 'province' instead. It is worth noting that in Spain there is a preference for 'provincia' rather than 'inspectoría', and that France prefers 'province' also.

'+Context (examples of use)+': "Each province is headed by a provincial. In union with the Rector Major and with love and pastoral zeal he carries out his service of building up a fraternal provincial community". (C. 161)
