Answers


1)    Explicability: Emergent features/ properties of whole comprising of parts & articulation of parts. Say consciousness is emergent feature of the circuit completing through brain, sense organs motor organs & objects out-side human body. To some extent events in consciousness can be explained in their terms.  

Reducibility: In above example if somebody says that we are nothing more than brain etc. OR we are nothing more than a set of chemical reactions. He is indulging in reductionism. He misuses explicability by replacing it with reducibility. No chemical reaction is a mere chemical reaction; it has its impacts on experiences which are certainly not chemical equations & formulae.

2)    Inequality : Any differential distribution of income, status, power, natural endowments or whatever, amounts to inequality

Disparity: Here it is implied that the particular inequality under consideration is unwarranted or improper. There is some parity of deserving which is violated by inequality. These concepts must be distinguished because there is a tendency of deeming any Inequality as Disparity!

3)    Image: Any unit perception which can be isolated & remembered

     Concept : Abstraction governed by a definition explicit or implicit   

     delimiting the items which can be subsumed under it. Cases can be  

     used as tag

4)    Intuitive: Personal ability to properly respond to whatever is directly  

     presented to Consciousness. e.g. Singing by mimicking the Master                   

    Algorithmic: Ability to generate impersonally transferable method to  

    carry out the task.  e.g. writing & implementing notation

    [everyone knows how to tie a knot but can not write the method as

                       easily as one can do things actually]

5)    Bending: Force that causes bending is transverse to the member getting bent

         Buckling: Force that causes the Buckling is axial to the member but

         generates transverse component as due to eccentricity.

6)    Objective Exam: matching the answers to prejudged readymade answers

     Descriptive Exam: Examiner has to use his own judgment in  

     evaluating & quantifying his evaluation.

7)    Villain: Character which commits misdeeds for gain or hatred

Anti-Hero: Commits self harming misdeeds due to idiosyncrasy

8)    Anticipation: A possibility is contemplated & considered a possibility

Prediction   : Knowledge claim as to which possibility would materialize

9)    Loneliness : Being alone while yearning for togetherness

Solitude: Not feeling alone while being alone

10)  Insecure: Worried due to anticipated threat/loss

Paranoid: Compulsively feeling threatened without any eminent danger
