WHAT DOES URL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Uniform resource locator

The uniform resource locator, abbreviated as URL, is a specific character string that constitutes a reference to a resource. In most web browsers, the URL of a web page is displayed on top inside an address bar. An example of a typical URL would be "http://en.example.org/wiki/Main_Page". A URL is technically a type of uniform resource identifier, but in many technical documents and verbal discussions, URL is often used as a synonym for URI, and this is not considered a problem. URLs are commonly used for web pages, but can also be used for file transfer, email and many other applications. URLs are specified in RFC 3986, and in a WHATWG URL Living Standard.

Definition of URL in the English dictionary

The definition of URL in the dictionary is uniform resource locator; a standardized address of a location on the internet, esp on the World Wide Web.
