I find that you can often use analogies or describe very vaguely to at least make some sense. It does take nuance out of the thing you’re describing but maybe that’s helpful. I’ve had multiple times that I explain in simpler terms, and I come to realize what my idea actually looks like to other people.

A good analogy creates a bridge toward interest, and interest leads to the focus needed to learn the technical stuff.
