A preamble is an introductory section of a document, speech, or law that explains its purpose, context, and guiding principles. In legal texts and constitutions, the preamble often outlines the fundamental values, intentions, and motivations behind the provisions that follow. While it may not always have direct legal force, it helps interpret the meaning and spirit of the main text. In other contexts, a preamble can be the opening remarks or preliminary statement that prepares the audience for what is to come and frames the overall message.
