Define the following terms in terms of interpretation act, law, legislation, Enact, assented, Gazette, month and person

Let's define these terms:

• Interpretation Act: This is a specific statute (like the Interpretation Act 33 of 1957 in South Africa) that provides general rules and definitions for interpreting other laws. It aims to promote consistency and clarity in legal interpretation.
• Law: In a broad sense, law refers to the system of rules that a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and which it may enforce by the imposition of penalties. It includes statutes, common law, and customary law.
• Legislation: This refers specifically to written law enacted by a legislative body (like Parliament). It includes Acts, proclamations, and regulations.
• Enact: To enact means to make a bill into a law. It is the process by which a legislative body formally passes a proposed law.
• Assented: A bill is assented to when the head of state (e.g., the President) formally approves it, thereby making it an Act of Parliament. This is a crucial step before a bill becomes law.
• Gazette: The Gazette (often the Government Gazette) is the official publication of the government where new laws, regulations, proclamations, and other official notices are published to inform the public. Publication in the Gazette usually signifies the official commencement or promulgation of a law.
• Month: Unless otherwise specified in a particular law, month generally refers to a calendar month.
• Person: In legal terms, person includes not only natural persons (human beings) but also juristic persons (legal entities like companies, close corporations, or statutory bodies) unless the context indicates otherwise.
