Symbols to describe text?
Silly me, I'd use text to describe a symbol.

Dear JoAnn,

Of course, but it (he or she???) wrote 'decribe text', not 'describe
text'.
The word 'decribe' is not in my dictionary, and I am only an alien
speaking English as a foreign language.
As it did not explain what it meant, we will have to wait for it to be
more precise. Perhaps (probably) 'decribe' was a spelling error,
perhaps not.

Hopefully it will be able to elaborate in a follow-up message.

Kind regards from an alien,

Rob.

Could it be "decipher"?

Often a question of this sort refers to using a curved brace to include
several lines of text, in which case the answer is to use the appropriate
AutoShape.
