A quick definition of recant:

Term: RECANT

Definition: When someone says something and then changes their mind and says they were wrong, that's called recanting. It means they take back what they said before and publicly say they don't believe it anymore. For example, if someone testified in court that they saw someone commit a crime, but then later said they were mistaken and didn't actually see anything, they would be recanting their testimony.

Related Word: recantation (noun) - the act of recanting or taking back what was previously said or believed.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To formally or publicly withdraw or renounce prior statements or testimony.

Example 1: The politician was caught lying and had to recant his previous statements to avoid further consequences.

Example 2: The witness initially testified against the defendant, but later recanted their testimony, claiming they were coerced into giving false information.

Explanation: Recanting means taking back something you said or did before. It usually happens when someone realizes they were wrong or misled. In the first example, the politician had to recant their statements to avoid getting into trouble. In the second example, the witness changed their testimony because they realized they were not telling the truth before.
