Key Points

  • The word "vivid" means something that is clear, detailed, and lively; it usually refers to strong, distinct, and striking impressions. (जीवंत)
    • Example: Her description of the event was so vivid that I felt like I was there.
  • "Vague" refers to something that is not clear, definite, or detailed; it is often ambiguous or indistinct. (अस्पष्ट)
