How it's used
Formal in nature, this term is primarily used in academic, professional, or journalistic contexts. It functions as a sophisticated way to describe condensing information, making it less common in casual, everyday chit-chat where people prefer simpler verbs like 講下 or 總結.
Examples
Can you outline the main points of the matter for me?
He summarized the whole plan very quickly.

Common mistake
Avoid using this in overly casual settings, as it can sound stiff or pretentious. It is not a direct substitute for simple storytelling or explaining a situation to a friend.
