Correction & Explanation: 1. "Tell more about the subject" → "explain more about a subject" - "Explain" sounds more natural in this context. "Tell more" is usually used in casual speech, but "explain" fits better when discussing word meanings. 2. "Should I use it only as" → "should I only use it to mean" - This small change makes the sentence clearer and more grammatically precise. Tip: Your original question is understandable, but when discussing word meanings, it's good to use "to mean" instead of "as", since you're asking about definitions rather than functions.

You can elaborate on an idea or thought in both ways. You cannot apply elaborate to physical objects or entities, however. You would never elaborate a sculpture, but you could elaborate on your idea about a sculpture.

You can use "to elaborate" both ways: 1. To develop in detail – Expanding on an idea with more complexity or depth. 2. To provide more information – Simply giving additional facts or explanations. Both meanings are correct, but the context will clarify whether you're adding complexity or just more info.
