How it's used
Focuses on the subjective angle or narrative someone provides regarding an event or issue. It is frequently used when comparing conflicting accounts or when someone is trying to justify their position. While it can mean an argument, it is less about a formal logical debate and more about the specific way someone frames a story.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 講法, which is often used to describe the way a person speaks or the specific phrasing used to express an idea. While they overlap, 説法 leans more toward the content or version of a story, whereas 講法 leans toward the manner of expression.
