Say what you will about Ferguson, this is fascinating.

"state and illustrate the nature of definition" this can be abbreviated to "define definition", therefore definition is the action of stating and illustrating the nature of something. it's a trick question, am i right?

@teague67 No, not a trick question but a very tough one: 'State and illustrate the nature of definition' to me means saying what you think it means to define something, some problem say, and illustrate what you mean by giving examples of it. (Personally, I think I'd skip this question and try my hand at something easier!)

Indian hill stations are truly pleasant. I've been to Ooty and Yercaud, never to Simla. Some day.

I've been to Shimla. Great place. Relics of empire fast evaporating, however.
