Answer: Definition

If a text gives you the exact meaning of a word in a direct and clearly stated manner, this means that it is giving you the definition of the word. If the definition of a word is not given, it is still possible to discover its meaning through other means. For example, you can look at context to determine what the word most likely means due to its place in a sentence.
