==Glossary of Terms - Letter of Comment:==
A letter written by a member of the College of Arms to discuss current submissions and advise the Sovereign(s) of Arms on the acceptability of the names and armory that are being considered. This is usually abbreviated LoC. In kingdoms which have an internal submissions process using internal Letters of Intent, the Letter of Comment written at the Society level for the College of Arms is often termed an ''External Letter of Comment'' (abbreviated ELoC or XLoC) and the Letter of Comment written for use within the Kingdom is termed an ''Internal Letter of Comment'' (abbreviated ILoC).
