narration- telling a story
description- describing
exposition- explaining

I have looked these words up in a dictionary and a thesaurus and each word is a synonym for the other. I am practicing for a reading test and these words are about the same. Someone please help me better understand the specific meanings of the words. Thank you for all your answers.

It is NOT pronounced as if it were spelled N U K U L A R - so why do so many public officials & supposedly learned people say it the wrong way? I'm talking several Presidents (present & past) college educated people, newscasters, etc. Do they not realize how ignorant they sound because the can not pronounce the word correctly?? It's nu-CLE-ar - that is the only way is should be pronounced!!!!!
