So far there are 27 actual changes to the words in the constitution Changes are called "Amendments". However, the Supreme Court determines the meaning of the words in the Constitution and they by their rulings. have made de facto changes int the constitution. Once a Supreme Court decision is handed down on a constitutional issue, it can be cited just as if it were part of the Constitution .
