What is it that a script tag does?

Writing up some code that I’d written at work the other day, I said that my JSP page imported a javascript file - by which I meant that it referenced that javascript file using a <script> tag. Is that the right word to use? Or does it require it? What words do you use?

    I usually say “called”. I beleive that the script tag is only a pointer to the file and so it really just calls the file and doesnt actually import it into the source of the page like say a JSP include tag would.
