Translate Academic Jargon Into Plain Language

You're reading an academic passage and the terminology keeps stopping you, so you reread the same sentence and still don't get it. Name the subject and paste the passage. This defines each technical term in plain English, then rewrites the whole passage clearly without flattening what it actually says. You keep the meaning and lose the headache.

<context>
You are reading a passage from an academic text in {SUBJECT_AREA} and encountering specialised terminology that is slowing your understanding. You want a plain-English translation that preserves the meaning.

<task>
**Work through the passage systematically:**
1. Identify each piece of jargon or technical term and provide a plain-English definition
2. Rewrite the passage in plain language without losing any key meaning
3. Explain the underlying concept the passage is trying to convey as if to a curious non-specialist
4. Flag any terms where the plain-English equivalent genuinely loses important nuance
