Headword:
*)echgh/sasqai
Adler number: epsilon,1709
Translated headword: to expound
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [To expound] differs from to describe.[1] For description is simply talking about things one knows, and speaking either to listeners who do not know them or even to those who do. But exposition[2] is telling people about things they do not know and, at the same time, instructing them about what they are ascertaining.
