A keyword is a word with a special meaning and function in a programming language (see also reserved words).
Lazarus will usually display keywords in Pascal text files (source code) in bold black characters using syntax highlighting. Use [IDE options|Editor|Colors] to change.
Some very common Free Pascal words like read or write, are in fact procedure names, not keywords.
