Specific means exact, precise, and to the point, and giving a pinpoint accurate description. Example: WikiAnswers is on the internet at the web address 'wiki.answers.com'. This is a specific example because it cites the exact location and address of WikiAnswers.

General is a broad description and is vague. Example:WikiAnswers is on the internet. This example shows that WikiAnswers is on the internet, but is a general explanation of where to find WikiAnswers.

Generalization is where you refer to a large group of things or topics.

Specification is where you sate the individual points or in smaller groups of things or topics. It is more precise.
