Naming one by one
Enumerating is listing things one by one, often in sequence or with numbers: She began enumerating the reasons she couldn't attend.
The word implies methodical counting or cataloging rather than casual mention.
In technical contexts, enumerating means assigning numbers to items in a set or systematically working through possibilities: The program enumerates all valid configurations.
