What is the word?

For when you initial a contract or document for amendment?

There's a word for it but can't remember it and driving me mad.

    I always thought Grease was the word but I don't think it really helps here.

    So the contract for the CEO post at our club isn't quite what you THOUGHT you'd been offered ?

  • I think it's Latin. Think it's ad idem or something like that

  • Just going through a contract now for a partner at a premier league club. I’m just sticking my changes in word and it tracks them.

    Doesn’t that render initials on a paper page useless in the digital age?

    Addendum
    No too sure it is because wouldn't an addendum be an addition to the contract whilst it was stated above its an amendment  so a change in terms. Although happy to be told otherwise.
  • isn't addendum something added at the end?

    Proofread and proofreader's marks are to mark up something for change.

    I believe 'appendix' would be an addition.

    This is my take on it, not sure addendum is correct, that comes once everything has been agreed.

    Happy to be corrected, there is a word for a correction but I can't think of it.  :)

    Off the top of my head The Word was a 1990s Channel 4 television programme in the United Kingdom.[5] which took its name from the regular column covering up and coming Manchester bands in the Manchester Evening News written by Terry Christian.

    Format[edit]

    The show's presenters included Mancunian music radio presenter and journalist Terry Christian, comedian Mark LamarrDani BehrKatie PuckrikJasmine DotiwalaAlan ConnorAmanda de Cadenet and Huffty.[6] Originally broadcast in the old Tube time slot of 6 pm Friday evenings, The Word's main live show was shifted to a late-night timeslot from 9 November 1990. The magazine format allowed for interviews, live music, features and even game shows. The flexible late-night format meant that guests could do just about anything to be controversial.

    There was also an 'I'll do anything to be on television' section called "The Hopefuls" which ran for half of series 4 and half of series 5 in which people did generally repulsive things in order to get featured on the programme.[6]

    Production[edit]

    The show was the brainchild of Charlie Parsons and Christian and was originally produced for series 1 and 2 by the production company 24 Hour Productions, which later became Planet 24.

    Paul Ross was the series editor on series 3 and 4, and became executive producer for series 5. Jo Whiley worked as a researcher/band booker on series 2 and half of series 3 and is credited as having given Nirvana their historic and notorious first TV appearance.[7]

    The programme ran for five series from 1990 to 1995. From the start, there was considerable tabloid backlash against the show. In mid 2000, Channel 4 screened a short-running compilation series titled "Best of The Word", which mostly featured music performances and was presented by award winning Mancunian specialist music radio presenter Terry Christian.

    Tango sponsored the show in 1994.

    I believe 'appendix' would be an addition.
    An appendix would be a document or photo etc referred in the main text but which is included after the conclusion so as not to interrupt the flow of the document.
