Presentation.
Other forms: presentations
The noun presentation means the official giving, or presenting, of something. The presentation of diplomas at a graduation ceremony is the part that makes many of the parents in the audience cry.
A presentation can be a ceremony of giving some gift or award, and it can also be a demonstration or show — like a dog training presentation at your local pet store.

In the 1600s, presentation was commonly used to mean "show or play," as in "a theatrical presentation ."

How to use presentation in a sentence?
Richard Gowan :
If State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert is nominated and approved, people will be interested to see whether State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert's willing and able to do the diplomatic toil or whether State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert will see this as an extension of the spokesman position and focus more on presentation of Richard Gowan position before the Security Council.
David Glass :
It just seems to me that Britney Spears presentation to Los Angeles Superior Court did n’t do Britney Spears any favors, the words came out like bullets. Britney Spears shifted rapidly between thoughts and ideas. Britney Spears also admitted to being depressed and crying all the time. I ’m not Britney Spears psychologist, but these are things that potentially point to being in the middle of mental illness.
Chairman Francois Carrard :
I have no feeling of any fight at all; the members of the committee have, without exception, discussed every area in the most open and constructive way, we had some fabulous input, very independent; there was no particular comment as to Mr Scala's presentation, which was excellent.
Chief Executive Officer Brian Roberts :
It will be the most sophisticated and technologically forward-looking presentation we have ever done.
Jack Dalrymple :
The industry's presentation has some very real reasons why the goal has become more difficult, many of these items they've mentioned realistically could not have been expected.

The Perfect Percy Jackson Replacement For Adults Is Now Streaming On NetflixKaos soundtrack guide: every song & when they play, kaos cast & character guide. Warning: This article contains spoilers for Netflix's Kaos. The title of Netflix’s Kaos holds a secret meaning that could excite Greek mythology fans by hinting at a new character for season 2. The dark comedy combines the characters and stories while creating a new, contemporary narrative. Kaos impressively gets a lot correct about Greek mythology that most TV shows and movies misrepresent or ignore, such as the deeply dysfunctional family system of Zeus and Hera. Even an Ancient Greece expert has called this one of the cleverest retellings of the myths in an OpEd on The Conversation . The zany events in Kaos fit the definition of “chaos,” with the story coming across as melodramatic and unhinged in the best way possible. As such, the choice to switch out a “Ch” for a “K” could be seen as a creative choice to make the title distinctive and memorable. However, there is also a secret meaning of the title related to the spelling , which could influence the plot of Kaos season 2. A new Greek mythology show is now streaming on Netflix, and it’s the perfect Percy Jackson replacement series for a more mature audience. The Spelling Of Kaos Could Refer To The Titular Primordial God In Greek MythologyKaos is an important name in greek mythology. People vaguely familiar with Greek mythology might not have caught onto the significance of the Netflix series’ title’s spelling. However, the term “ Kaos ” in Greek mythology refers to two essential concepts within the cosmology. Firstly, it is the term for the time before the empty and disordered state of the universe before the gods. Secondly, Kaos is the name of the first primordial god in Greek mythology – a personification of emptiness – from whom all Greek deities are descended. Due to the messy nature of the Greek gods’ family tree, the titular goddess is both the great-grandmother and the great-great-grandmother of the Kaos main characters of Zeus and Hera. While both of these definitions could influence the story, the primordial goddess could make Kaos season 2 much more interesting. The Netflix dark comedy Kaos masterfully uses songs to help establish the characters' personalities and the score to set the tone for each scene. How Kaos Could Fit Into Kaos Season 2The primordial goddess fits kaos' theme of women in power. One of the obvious goals of this Netflix series is to reimagine Ancient Greek mythology in a way that gives women a voice in their own stories, which offers the perfect excuse to introduce the primordial goddess Kaos. By the end of Kaos season 1 , Hera, Riddy, Ari, and Persephone are in a position of power over Zeus, Orpheus, Minos, and Hades. These powerful women have control in a way that would never happen in the original myths. Because she hasn’t been portrayed as a personified character, the creator of Kaos basically has a blank slate to work with… Medusa is also leading the charge to make Zeus’ prophecy in Kaos come true. Lachy and the other fates exert their power, even in death, to put Prometheus in charge. This flips the script on Greek mythology. The introduction of Kaos, the primordial goddess, would fit within the existing themes. Moreover, because she hasn’t been portrayed as a personified character, the creator of Kaos basically has a blank slate to work with, offering creative freedom without contradicting the existing stories.

Synonym ChooserHow does the verb present contrast with its synonyms? Some common synonyms of present are afford , bestow , confer , donate , and give . While all these words mean "to convey to another as a possession," present carries a note of formality and ceremony. In what contexts can afford take the place of present ? The words afford and present are synonyms, but do differ in nuance. Specifically, afford implies a giving or bestowing usually as a natural or legitimate consequence of the character of the giver. When might bestow be a better fit than present ? While in some cases nearly identical to present , bestow implies the conveying of something as a gift and may suggest condescension on the part of the giver. When is it sensible to use confer instead of present ? In some situations, the words confer and present are roughly equivalent. However, confer implies a gracious giving (as of a favor or honor). Where would donate be a reasonable alternative to present ? The synonyms donate and present are sometimes interchangeable, but donate is likely to imply a publicized giving (as to charity). When could give be used to replace present ? While the synonyms give and present are close in meaning, give , the general term, is applicable to any passing over of anything by any means.
