What's the difference between "understanding", ”comprehension" and "interpretation"?
When someone says something that I am not sure I get it right, I would try to retell what he/she said in my own words and start with "my understanding/comprehension/interpretation is that blablabla". The question is am I right about the usage of these three 3 words? Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you so much!

Answer

You can say "my understanding is..." or "my interpretation is..." but it's unnatural to use the word 'comprehension' in that phrase. Interpretation is a more active process than understanding - it suggests you needed to mentally process and make some guesses about the events or situation to work out what it means or why it is significant
