-Zola has built-in support for taxonomies.
+Zola has built-in support for taxonomies. Taxonomies are a way for users to group content according to user-defined categories.
+
+## Definitions
+
+- Taxonomy: A category that can be used to group content 
+- Term: A specific group within a taxonomy 
+- Value: A piece of content that can be associated with a term
+
+## Example: a movie website
+
+Imagine that you want to make a website to display information about various movies. In that case you could use the following taxonomies:
+
+- Director
+- Genres
+- Awards
+- Release year
+
+Then at build time Zola can create pages for each taxonomy listing all of the known terms as well as pages for each term in a taxonomy, listing all of the pieces of content associated with that term. 
+
+Imagine again we have the following movies: 
+```
+- Shape of water                   <--- Value
+  - Director                         <--- Taxonomy
+    - Guillermo Del Toro                 <--- Term
+  - Genres                            <--- Taxonomy
+    - Thriller                           <--- Term
+    - Drama                              <--- Term
+  - Awards                           <--- Taxonomy
+    - Golden globe                         <--- Term
+    - Academy award                        <--- Term
+    - BAFTA                                <--- Term
+  - Release year                      <--- Taxonomy
+    - 2017                                <--- Term
+    
+- The Room:                         <--- Value
+  - Director                           <--- Taxonomy
+    - Tommy Wiseau                         <--- Term
+  - Genres                              <--- Taxonomy
+    - Romance                              <--- Term
+    - Drama                                <--- Term
+  - Release Year                       <--- Taxonomy
+    - 2003                                 <--- Term
+
+- Bright                           <--- Value
+  - Director                           <--- Taxonomy
+    - David Ayer                           <--- Term
+  - Genres                              <--- Taxonomy
+    - Fantasy                              <--- Term
+    - Action                               <--- Term
+  - Awards                             <--- Taxonomy
+    - California on Location Awards        <--- Term
+  - Release Year                       <--- Taxonomy
+    - 2017                                 <--- Term
+```
+
+In this example the page for `Release year` would include links to pages for both 2003 and 2017, where the page for 2017 would list both Shape of Water and Bright.
