==Explanation vs. justification== The term "explanation" is sometimes used in the context of [[Theory of justification|justification]], e.g., the explanation as to why a [[belief]] is true. Justification may be understood as the explanation as to why a belief is a true one or an account of how one knows what one knows. It is important to be aware when an explanation is not a justification. One may give a detailed and believable account on something without giving a single proof.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}
