 - You can't use `new dynamic()`.
 - You can't derive a type from the `dynamic` type.
 
-The `delegate` keyword declares a type derived from <xref:System.Delegate?displayProperty=nameWithType>. `System.Delegate` type is an abstract type.
+The `delegate` keyword is a built-in reference type keyword that declares a type derived from <xref:System.Delegate?displayProperty=nameWithType>. Unlike the other built-in type keywords, `delegate` isn't an alias for a specific .NET type. Instead, it declares custom types that derive from the abstract `System.Delegate` type. Similarly, `dynamic` represents runtime binding behavior rather than being a direct alias for a specific .NET type.
 
 The [`void`](void.md) keyword represents the absence of a type. You use it as the return type of a method that doesn't return a value.

 In .NET, `System.Action` and `System.Func` types provide generic definitions for many common delegates. You likely don't need to define new custom delegate types. Instead, you can create instantiations of the provided generic types.
 
-A `delegate` is a reference type that can be used to encapsulate a named or an anonymous method. Delegates are similar to function pointers in C++; however, delegates are type-safe and secure. For applications of delegates, see [Delegates](../../programming-guide/delegates/index.md) and [Generic Delegates](../../programming-guide/generics/generic-delegates.md). Delegates are the basis for [Events](../../programming-guide/events/index.md). A delegate can be instantiated by associating it either with a named or anonymous method.

 The delegate must be instantiated with a method or lambda expression that has a compatible return type and input parameters. For more information on the degree of variance that is allowed in the method signature, see [Variance in Delegates](../../programming-guide/concepts/covariance-contravariance/using-variance-in-delegates.md). For use with anonymous methods, the delegate and the code to be associated with it are declared together.
