A definition or brief description of Electric charge.

An isolatable form of charge, the foundational property of matter upon which understanding electricity rests, manifests itself primordially in two forms in the atoms of matter, specifically in protons and electrons, assigned the charge-names, positive and negative, respectively, the two types of charged particles, though spatially separate, exhibiting mutual attraction, the particles within types exhibiting mutual repulsion.
