Answer 1

Finding a word's literal meaning means looking at what it really says or shows, like "kick" means to hit something with your foot. Finding a word's technical meaning is about what that word means in a special subject, like "force" in science means a push or pull. Technical meanings are often found in science books, math textbooks, and instruction manuals. To figure out which meaning a word has in a text, you can look at the other words around it and see what the text is talking about.
