In Java it makes more sense to talk about abstract methods, if we're on
the method level. Interfaces are type-level construct, and they include
not only abstract methods, but also default and static methods (with
implementation), constants etc.
TBH, I don't see how this could be named well to fit all languages. I
like "declaration" word more, if we need a name. However, it's
confusable with "definition".
