Paraphrasing in human communications
It is a form of feedback to know whether someone has listened to and understood the speaker or not.
The matter spoken by speaker is summarised by the listener and restated and he need not repeat the exact words. He provides a restatement of what he understands. This is called paraphrasing.
It allows one to understand how much She/He understood of what was communicated. If someone can not repeat or write down a summary of what was said, then She/He probably did not get the whole message or did not understand it.
