'+Synonyms+': assessment, evaluation, examen

'+Geographical/Regional usage+':

'+Description+': While the sense of evaluation or assessment certainly exists, in the case of 2nd, 3rd and 4th meanings indicated above, at least in the case of initial formation it would be good not to lose sight of the liturgical and formative sense of the RCIA ''scrutinium'', which is for the elect just prior to Baptism - in other words the individual is already chosen and accepted, and the focus is on Christ and forgiveness of sin.

'+Context (examples of use)+': For meaning (1): "If the first scrutiny should be ineffective, there shall be a second and a third..." (C. 153).

'+Other notes+': The term 'scrutiny' turns up in a number of Salesian documents, in the general sense of evaluation, particularly at community level (e.g. ''scrutinium paupertatis'' in AGC 384) or the ''scrutinium orationis'' (GC21, 60b). But it has never been precisely defined in these usages. One just assumes that it recalls the RCIA concept of something done in a context of faith, rather than the sense of the Latin ''scrutinari'' which is more a sifting of rubbish to discover something of value that might be hidden within.

(:zapend:) (:zapform key=Type:) '''Term type''' ('EntryTerm' ''if no other applies)'' (1) (2) [Initialisms like AGC are regarded as acronyms; a term like 'Bro.' is an abbreviation; an example of short form instead would be the main part of a very long book title (most of DB's book titles! 'Giovane Provveduto' is a short form). A loan term is not translated whereas a calque is. A blend is where two (or more) morphemes or 'word' parts have been combined to form a single term, as in the case of 'austraLasia'. Choose variant when there exists at least one other common form of the term. ] (:zapend:)
