the definition of definition

What is the definition of definition? I believe the answer lies within the question. If someone ever comes up to me and asks me what the word "definition" means, I would answer by saying: "you mean what is the definition of definition" and I would leave it at that. From that response I think that they should be able to figure it out. Or if by some chance someone came up to me and asked me to "define the word 'definition'", I would say "you just did it for me" and walk away. Like I said, the answer lies within the question. It is almost like a riddle, but not. The only problem though is that everybody already knows what the word definition means, except maybe foreigners and small children. So I may never really get a chance to say "the definition of definition" to anyone. I think if I said that to a small child they would just get more confused, and the chances of a foreigner walking up to me and asking what the word "definition" means are small. Unless maybe I taught an English class in another country, that would be the only way I could really see it happening.
