    A wiki (derived from the Hawaiian term for quick) is code that allows users to freely create and edit Web content using any Web browser and no other special tools. Example

    A widget is usually some sort of plugin or addon for WordPress ect
    Example

    The term widget is used for a generic "thing" when there is no real name for it.

    ha ha! Exclam. A sarcastic verbally represented laugh exclaimed at a persons attempt at wit.
