Elaboration
Elaboration is the process of adding more information to existing, relatively simple information to create a more complex, emergent whole. It involves developing an idea by incorporating details to amplify the original simple idea. Elaboration enhances ideas and objects by providing nuance and detail.[1][2] Elaboration may involve planning or executing a task with painstaking attention to numerous parts or details.
Examples of elaboration in other fields
In the law, a bill of particulars is an elaboration of allegations, theories of law, and facts contained in another pleading, such as a complaint, answer, or reply.
