public solo or small-group performance
A show where one person or a small group plays music, dances, or says poems in front of people.
Padron ng paggamit:
[someone] gives [a] recital; [a] [instrument] recital; [a] [dance/poetry] recital
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse "recital" with "rehearsal". A "rehearsal" is a practice and usually not open to the public, while a "recital" is a real performance for an audience. Learners may also think a recital is only for classical music, but it can be for dance or poetry as well.
Mga kasingkahulugan
concert (Usually suggests a larger musical performance, often with more performers or a full program, not always focused on one person.)
|
performance (Very general word for any show; does not suggest the small, often solo nature that "recital" usually has.)
Mga kasalungat
rehearsal (A practice session without a full public audience, while a recital is normally a finished performance for an audience.)

act of reciting from memory
When a person says a poem or other text aloud from memory, often in front of other people.
Padron ng paggamit:
[someone] gives [a] recital of [a poem/text]; [a] recital of [a] poem
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may think "recital" only means a music show. In this sense, it can also mean saying a poem or text from memory. Many learners also confuse "recital" with "reading"; a recital is from memory, while a reading can be done from the page.
Mga kasingkahulugan
recitation (Very close in meaning; slightly more common for the classroom activity of saying something learned by heart.)
Mga kasalungat
improvisation (Improvisation means speaking or performing without prepared or memorized words, the opposite of a set recital.)

long detailed list-like account
A long, careful story or list that gives many facts or details, often so many that it feels boring.
Padron ng paggamit:
[a] recital of [facts/events/names]; [a] long recital of [something]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use "recital" when they mean a simple "story" or "comment". In this sense, a recital usually sounds long or detailed, often too detailed, like a list of facts or events.
Mga kasingkahulugan
account (A general word for a description of what happened; "recital" suggests a more detailed, item-by-item listing.)
|
enumeration (A formal word for a step-by-step list; similar idea but focuses more on the listing than the narrative feel of "recital".)
Mga kasalungat
summary (A summary gives only the main points briefly, while a recital goes through many details at length.)
Mga kolokasyon
a long recital
|a tedious recital
|a recital of facts
|a recital of events
|a recital of complaints

introductory clauses in a contract
In a contract or legal paper, the part at the beginning that explains the background and reasons before the main rules and terms.
Padron ng paggamit:
the recitals to [an agreement]; as stated in the recitals; [the] recitals section
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may confuse this legal meaning with the everyday meaning of a performance. In contracts, "recitals" are not about music or shows; they are background statements at the start of the document.
Mga kasingkahulugan
preamble (Also means an introduction, especially in formal or legal texts; a preamble can be broader, while "recitals" are a specific part of contracts listing background facts.)
Mga kasalungat
operative provisions (The operative provisions are the main rules and obligations of a contract, while the recitals only explain background facts and purposes.)
