Yes, I know that title is confusing lol! It stands for “explain like I’m 5”. In other words, explain things in a basic way so we can easily understand <3


So, explain something, or ask for someone to explain something! I’ll post an example below <3

impedance

Impedance is a bit like resistance, but it's a bit more complicated than that. Think of it like a wall. Resistance is like a wall that won't let anything pass through it, but impedance is like a wall that will let some things pass through, but not all of them. When you plug something into the wall, like a headphone or a speaker, some of the sound waves can get through, but other types of sound waves can't pass through the wall at all. Impedance is kind of like that, but instead of sound, it's electricity that's trying to get through. Things like speakers and headphones have a certain amount of impedance, and when you connect them to an amplifier, the amplifier has to use more power to push the electricity through the wall (or the impedance).

guttural r

Guttural r is the sound that some people make when they talk or sing. It's kind of like when you put your tongue to the roof of your mouth and then make an "Rrrr" sound. Some languages like French, German, and Hebrew have this type of sound, and people who speak these languages often make this sound when they talk. It can sound a bit gruff, but it is an important part of these languages.

digital hoarding

Digital hoarding is when someone collects large amounts of digital information, such as videos, pictures, documents and files. It is like collecting, but everything you collect is in electronic form instead of physical form. Just like a hoarder would collect things like clothes and old newspapers, a digital hoarder will collect digital items like videos and pictures they find online. It can become a problem when so much digital content is collected that it becomes difficult to manage and access it easily.

fibonacci numbers

Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two numbers that come before it. For example, the first number in the sequence is 1, then the next number is 1 (1+0), then the next number is 2 (1+1), then the next number is 3 (2+1), and so on. So the sequence is: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and so on.
