The word “critique” can be defined as:
1. **Noun**: A detailed analysis and assessment of something, typically a piece of literature, art, or a performance, where the strengths and weaknesses are evaluated.
2. **Verb**: To evaluate in a detailed and analytical manner; to review or assess the merits and faults of a work or idea.
In both uses, a critique aims to provide constructive feedback and insight rather than merely critique for the sake of criticism.
