presentation
Speech with slides
Presentation covers the act of presenting and the thing presented.
A formal presentation is a prepared talk, often with slides: Her presentation to the board went well.
The presentation of evidence puts it before a jury.
In medicine, presentation describes how a patient's symptoms appear or how a fetus is positioned for delivery: breech presentation.
The word often emphasizes how something is displayed or arranged: The food was delicious, but the presentation was lacking.
