Called

Answer:

TERMED

Hint:

Think of a formal way to describe something as being known by a particular name, often used in definitions or explanations.

Explanation:

"Called" is a straightforward definition clue where the answer is a synonym. "Termed" means the same thing—it’s a slightly more formal way to say "called" or "referred to as." There’s no hidden wordplay here, just a direct match between the clue and the answer. Think of it like saying "named" instead of "called."
