ความ แม่น ยำ

In short

Why it looks that way

Literally "marksmanship-evenness": the first hits the target, the second does not veer. An instrument of such precision does not lie by a gram

A word with a story stays in memory longer than one learned as a “spelling — translation” pair: memory holds on to meaning, not to a string.

In a live sentence

A single word almost never appears alone in conversation. A sentence shows where it fits and what stands next to it.
