ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Apprehension (understanding)

Apprehension means understanding or grasping something in your mind. It's like when you see something or someone new and you start to think about what it might mean or how it works. Your brain is trying to make sense of it all!

Think of it like a puzzle. When you first start to put a puzzle together, it might look really confusing and you might not know where to start. But as you start to put the pieces together, you begin to understand how they fit and how the picture is forming. That's what apprehension is like - you're putting together the pieces of information in your brain until you have a full understanding of it.
