{wiki=Definitionism}
Definitionism refers to a philosophical or epistemological stance that emphasizes the importance of definitions and clarity in understanding concepts, ideas, and phenomena. It is the view that precise definitions help establish clear boundaries for discussion and analysis, thereby enhancing understanding and minimizing ambiguity. In practice, definitionism can apply to various fields such as science, mathematics, philosophy, and linguistics, where clarity in definitions can lead to more effective communication and comprehension.
