glossary

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?

(Other definitions for glossary that I've seen before include "Explanatory list of terms" , "one may see meaning here" , "A grossly distorted list of special words and definitions" , "List of technical terms in an appendix" , "List of words with meanings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
