Already addressed above -- when the receptacle is fed by two separate circuits.

An outlet is any point on the wiring were power is drawn from the circuit to energize a load.

A receptacle is a particular form of outlet. A lighting fixture attached directly to a box makes that box a lighting outlet.

It is a plug and a plug-in. :)
