One page of terms, each with what it means in this context.
I am reading in a field and many terms are unclear. I will give the terms and context. Do: 1) one sentence on what each means in this field; 2) flag terms whose meaning shifts by context; 3) give each an analogy from a field I know; 4) group into must-know versus good-to-know; 5) point out the two most easily confused terms.

How to use
术语表按「在这里是什么意思」记，不按字典定义。
Try tweaking it
- Ask for one diagnostic question first to locate where you are stuck.
- Replace "explain it" with "give three progressive exercises; correct me after I answer".
What you should get
- A diagnosis of exactly where you are stuck
- A small set of self-checkable exercises
Common mistakes
- Asking it to explain from scratch, and still not knowing where you went wrong.
- Memorising the explanation as the answer, then failing on any variant.
How to check the output
- It names exactly where you are stuck instead of re-explaining everything.
- Exercises are graded and self-checkable.
Where it works
- Good for: diagnosing where you are stuck, then giving the smallest exercise instead of a lecture.
- Watch out: ask it to flag uncertainty rather than memorising a confident but wrong explanation.
