Very interesting. When I was at school, we had a session on the definitions of those words like 'discuss' 'contrast' 'demonstrate' etc, and similar. One of the reasons for GCSE exams was to try to explain questions better so students' ability in the subject, rather than their standard of preparation from their teacher on what was expected by various essay titles.
