That being said, however, if you do need to use big terms, you might as well define them as well. Explain this again in laymen's terms and even try to add in the word's etymology for better impact. Try to place this section as early as possible so that the people reading the brochure will have a better understanding of the brochure and the important terms and definitions early on.
