1. gov

   The domain name gov is a sponsored top-level domain in the Domain Name System of the Internet. The name is derived from government, indicating its restricted use by government entities in the United States. The gov domain is administered by the General Services Administration, an independent agency of the United States federal government. The U.S. is the only country that has a government-specific top-level domain in addition to its country-code top-level domain. This is a result of the origins of the Internet as a U.S. federal government-sponsored research network. Other countries typically delegate a second-level domain for this purpose, for example: .gc.ca is the second-level domain for the Government of Canada and all subdomains. Some U.S. federal agencies use fed.us rather than gov. The Department of Defense and its subsidiary organizations use the mil sTLD. Some U.S. governmental entities use other domains, such as com domains by the United States Postal Service, and the United States Army's recruitment website.

Examples of GOV in a Sentence

1. Michele Hanisee:

2. Republican Rep. Jason Lewis:

   If you're trying to suggest that that somehow I've got these horrible attitudes or because you were engaged in a provocative radio talk show, even though your record in Congress is very mainstream -- Gov Track, puts me as a moderate, i'm working with( Democratic Rep.) Bobby Scott on criminal justice reform. I wrote a number of op-eds over the years questioning the efficacy of the drug war and specifically citing its impact on minority communities. My actual record is, is fairly clear. So when you take a quote in the context of a rhetorical discussion and put it in a headline that's even worse -- I do think that's out of context.

3. Kris Brown:

   [Florida Gov.] Rick Scott is a big example of that, he is undoubtedly running for Senate, and he’s usually gone along with everything the NRA has done.

4. Republican Gov. Rick Scott:

   I believe strongly that we cannot turn our backs on the refugee community in their time of greatest need, the U.S. vetting process for refugees is extremely rigorous, extensive, and comprehensive, and allows us to aid those that pose no threat to our country. Gov. Scott's stance is driven by divisive politics.

5. Jordan Shaw:

   Gov. McCrory moved to Greensboro in 1966 and was very aware of the profound impact the Woolworth sit-ins had on that community and the nation, those students were and are heroes to him because they stood up against the ultimate wrong. And their example drives Gov. McCrory to call-out cancel culture where it exists today, whether in politics, religion, academia, business, or media.
