The German word "Auslegung" is a noun that means "interpretation" or "explanation." It is derived from the prefix "aus" and the noun "Legung," which comes from the verb "legen," meaning "to lay" or "to place." In the context of "Auslegung," it does not mean to lay or place but to deduce meaning from something, like a text. The word is often used in contexts such as legal interpretations, interpretations of texts, or the technical specifications of machinery or equipment. Similar words in German include "Interpretation" (interpretation) and "Deutung" (explication).
