The use of key words when discussing Anarchy

Hi I hope the steemit community can contribute to my understanding of freedom and anarchy

Our most basic tool for understanding realty is language and our thought process in a large part depend on how we understand and define words 

One of the biggest hurdles for me when discussing the basic principles of freedom and anarchy is getting to a mutual frame of reference when it comes to the defining what I mean when Im using certain  words 
 
The first thing to do is establish how we are using certain words when talking or debating the merits of anarchist principles

I have used the following words in the ways described bellow

Government.
A central institution and administrative body with a monopoly on the use of violence within a given geographical area

Authority.
In the context of a discussion about anarchy usually authority is taken to mean. That authority which is taken by force. The type of authority that is assumed because of nothing other than status or position. Authority which is forced on person or persons without option to terminate the relationship 

And just to state my own definition of the word Anarchy. Just is I understand it. You might have your own definition, if so id love to hear it but I hope most people that truly align with anarchist principles will have more or less principally the same definition

Anarchy.
The arising of a natural order due to a lack of belief in the legitimacy of force, violence or threat of violence by a government(as defined above)
The opposition to the use of political violence
Monarchy = rule by 1
Oligarchy = rule by a few
Anarchy = rule by none
The absence of a central body with monopoly on violence 

There are no doubt many more words which should be clearly defined ....
