Kinz,
Parent is a very common term in all sorts of things, not just human relationships, nor graphs, nor document layout, nor computer programming languages. A parent is the file including the child file.
[eucode] File: myprog.ex include child.e [/eucode]
myprog.ex is child.e's parent.
Also, about learning C or some other mumbo jumbo language before learning Euphoria is a bit crazy. That would be like saying Euphoria uses an if statement, thus you first have to learn C because, after all, the if statement works the same in C as in Euphoria. Just because Euphoria uses common terms does not mean you have to learn every language that also uses a "while" statement.
Further, there are all sorts programming books that will use pseudo code. I see the word public, export, import frequently in those pseudo code examples that can apply to any language you wish. However, if you start using up and and_up, people will be totally confused. Euphoria is a programming language and it is allowed to use programming terms.
