(1)
(narrate) to tell a story-possibly as the main voice in a documentary; or a character who speaks to the audience in a performanceThe specific meaning of narrate depends on context. For example:
- "She narrated her story with tears in her eyes." -- told a story
- "Her diary chillingly narrates her descent into madness." -- tells a story in writing
- "Morgan Freeman narrated the documentary which features historic news reports and interviews." -- was the voice that tells a story while tying the scenes of a documentary together
- "The character who plays the Stage Director in Our Town also narrates for the audience." -- when an actor in a play, movie, or other performance helps to tell the story by talking directly to the audience (breaking the imaginary barrier between the performers and the audience)
