What definitions can do?
Hi. I'm writing about definitions and thinking about which verbs can be used with them.
Defintions can 'describe' something (the subject of the defintion), correct?
What about:
'Portray' (the thing as...)?
'Depict' (the thing as...)?
'Show' (the thing as...)?
'State' (that the thing is...)?
'Establish' (the thing as...)?
'Display' (the thing with the features A and B...)?
Thank you!!!!!!
