...My translation of words for the purpose of making them clearer.
Paraphrase means to reword something to clarify it.

.
Para in latin means "beside of" ...
... Para phrase =  beside of a phrase.
An example:
Ben Franklin said: "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.".
I will paraphrase that and say: "Go to bed early,  it's good for you."
