where is the detect
I apologize for any confusion. "Detect" is not explicitly mentioned in the passage. Rather, it's an offered synonym for the word "discern" in the context of the sentence.
To clarify:
- "Discern" means to perceive or recognize something, which can be synonymous with "detect."
If you're looking for the synonym directly in the passage, it may not be present. If you have other words or need help with something different, please let me know!
