encapsulation
의미: The act of expressing the essential features of something succinctly; the enclosing of something within a capsule or self-contained unit.
Encapsulation has both a figurative and a technical sense. Figuratively, it means capturing the essence of something in a compact form — a single image that encapsulates a whole era, or a phrase that encapsulates a complex idea. In computing and engineering, it refers to bundling data and methods together within a self-contained unit. The figurative use predominates in general English. Common collocations include 'a perfect encapsulation of,' 'the encapsulation of,' and 'neatly encapsulates.'
