Question

what is meaning of gist and summary. ? Both are equal or not equal ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The gist of a book, film, speech, article, etcetera, is simply the essential meaning of it. It is different from a summary, which is an accounting of the main points of something. A gist has the nuance of the core meaning or heart of an idea, whereas summary has the nuance of including all the bullet points.
