detail

Vocabulary Word

Definition

Detail refers to the small elements that make up something bigger or broader. It's about going deep into a subject matter, examining its small parts thoroughly rather than looking only at the surface or the general view.

Examples in Different Contexts

In social impact campaigns, the 'detail' can be about the personal stories that illustrate a broader issue. A campaign organizer might share, 'Her personal story adds detail to the challenges many face.'
