Preface

/ˈprɛfəs/noun / verb
ELI5 mode

A preface is an introductory section or statement at the beginning of a book, speech, or document that provides context, explains the author's intentions, or offers acknowledgments, helping to bridge the gap between reader and content. It adds a personal layer, revealing insights into the creator's process or influences, and in modern contexts, it's often used in digital media like podcasts or blogs to set expectations and engage audiences right away.
