The title of the section 1.3 [intro.defs] is "Terms et definitions".

"et"? What is French doing here?

It's not French. It's for those who ask "where are the definitions?"
The terms et them.

Seriously, exactly which document are you looking at? My copy of
ISO/IEC 14882:1998(E) shows:

1.3 Definitions [intro.defs]

-Mike

My copy of INCITS/ISO/IEC/14882-2003 (PDF, from webstore.ansi.org)
shows that one too: "1.3 Terms et definitions" :-)

I am looking at the 2003 version. You are looking at the 1998 version.

The French are doing absolutely nothing here -- not French, but Latin.

et = and, as in etc. (et cetera: and + the rest), et al. (et alii: and +
others).
