- 1詳述;詳細說明
A noun: the act of giving more detail, or the extra detail itself. If a teacher asks for elaboration, they want reasons, examples, steps — not a one-line answer. You can speak of her elaboration of the plan, meaning the longer, fuller telling. It is a little formal and school-like; in chat you would just say say more or explain. It is built from the verb elaborate. Though actually, elaborate as an adjective means worked out in a fancy, careful way — an elaborate cake, an elaborate lie — which feels different from this noun, even though they belong together. Elaboration is not the cake; it is the adding of detail. You will meet it in writing class, reports, and polite requests: Could I ask for some elaboration on that point?
組成From Middle French élaboration. Morphologically elaborate + -ion.
