The prompt
I’m trying to understand . Something I know inside out: . Explain the new idea by mapping it onto my world, part by part, and put the proper term beside each part so I pick up the real vocabulary. Then tell me where the comparison breaks: the two or three places where thinking about it my way would lead me to a wrong conclusion. Finish with one question I could only answer if I’d understood the real thing and not just the comparison, and hold your answer until I’ve tried. If my world is a poor fit for this idea, say so instead of forcing it, and flag any part of the explanation you’re not sure of.
