detail
When used as a noun to mean a small piece of information, "detail" can be both countable (e.g., "a tiny detail") and uncountable (e.g., "the level of detail"). As a verb meaning to describe something, it is typically used in professional or formal contexts, such as in reports, contracts, or academic writing. In the context of cleaning cars, "detailing" refers to a much deeper and more precise cleaning process than a standard car wash.
