Definition: A deep, reverberating response, emotional, sonic, or symbolic, that echoes beyond its origin. Resonance is not just sound; it’s the significance that lingers.
Usage: 'Her words held resonance, not because they were loud, but because they were true.'
Origin: From Latin resonare, to resound in physics, it describes the amplification of vibration. In poetics, it names the echo that moves the soul.
