Why this word is great
EXEMPLIFICATION — [Noun] The act of illustrating or proving a general statement by means of a concrete instance. From Medieval Latin exemplificātiō, from Latin exemplum ("example, model") and facere ("to make"). Unlike "example," which names the solitary specimen, or "demonstration," which performs a visible show of function, exemplification is the deliberate, connective gesture that breathes life into an abstraction. It is the teacher selecting a perfect line of poetry to illuminate an entire movement, the historian citing a lone love letter to evoke an era, the naturalist pointing to one fossil as the key to an extinct world—a quiet testament to our faith that the particular can bear the weight of the universal.
