Delineate

Delineate

<de-lin-nee-ayte>

describe; depict; define;

to describe or detail something using an outline.

The artist liked to delineate with pencil before painting.

Memory trick:
de line ate reminds of "the line"

At work:
Let's delineate the project before we work on it. Let's design it on paper first.
