A description is a statement or account that tells you what someone or something is like, providing details about its characteristics, features, or qualities. It can be a vivid, written or verbal portrayal of a person, place, object, or event, often used to help others visualize or understand the subject. The act of describing is one of the four rhetorical modes, alongside exposition, argumentation, and narration.
