Digression

/daɪˈɡrɛʃən/noun
ELI5 mode

Digression refers to a temporary departure from the main subject in speech, writing, or thought, often to explore related ideas or add flavor. In modern contexts, it's a double-edged sword—valuable for injecting creativity and depth in storytelling or discussions, but it can derail focus in professional settings like meetings or reports.
