Thanks @gutoslv, I left some comments. I think we might want to update the glossary later on, but the edits mentioned here should do for now.

Please drop the "- " at the beginning.

Though actually I think we can drop this one. I'm not really sure that "community" needs a definition.

3. **Opportunity**: An opportunity is specific to an exploration, and it refers to a way any contributor can contribute content to Oppia.
4. **Suggestion**: Any time any user contributes to Oppia, their contribution is added as a request which is known as a suggestion. There are two types of suggestions:

Let's drop this one as well; "create" is self-evident. Ditto for the next point.

8. **Creator** A person who starts an exploration or lesson, a creator takes on the teaching role in the learning environment.
9. **Exploration** The fundamental unit of learning on Oppia. This is an interactive activity built by a creator, and consumed by a learner.
