In the Glossary, in the Beginners section at the below link:
https://github.com/pharo-open-documentation/pharo-wiki/blob/master/General/Glossary.md

The explanation regarding the "Receiver" is not understandable and very confusing. My suggestion is to simplify the explanation (the words) and maybe demonstrate the explanation with a clear example.

Capture

Specifically, even if we break the sentence down:

The receiver of a message send is the instance of a class..
implementing the method...
corresponding to the message...
sent receiving this message.

We still fail to understand what a receiver is.
