I have a question.

Sometimes NGD is translated as "against" or "opposite" or "in front", to which I can see the relationship between.
But other times it's translated as "tell" or "declare".

I don't see the common link between the idea of "opposite" and "telling".
Can someone please help me understand the relationship between these ideas.
