var: a Type or a keyword
[MSDN][1] categorizes `var` under `Types`.

> variables that are declared at method
> scope can have an implicit type var

Strictly said, if I have it to explain to fellow programmers. 

Can I say; **var is a *Type***, or do I have to say; **var is a *keyword*** that instructs the compiler to determine the type itself.
