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.

As a preposition, NGD means "against", "opposite", "in front of"...
But as a verb, NGD means "to be conspicuous". Then the Hiph'il form of verb NGD, which in its basic form is HGYD (look at Mi 6:8), means "to cause to be conspicuous" ie "to declare", "to explain", "to tell".
