(historical) An object that marks the boundary of a piece of land (usually a stone, or a tree).
Landmark means: An object that marks the boundary of a piece of land (usually a stone, or a tree).. The word is mostly archaic or historical; you will only encounter it in old texts, period drama, or school history rather than current teen conversation. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour.
landmark means: An object that marks the boundary of a piece of land (usually a stone, or a tree).. Register: neutral, standard English. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.
