A presentation can be a ceremony of giving some gift or award, and it can also be a demonstration or show — like a dog training presentation at your local pet store.

In the 1600s, presentation was commonly used to mean "show or play," as in "a theatrical presentation ."

How to use presentation in a sentence?

Montana Miller :

It seems fairly obvious that the style of self-presentation is directly imitating that of celebrities such as the Kardashians—flaunting bodies and expressions in the most sexually provocative way possible, it is extremely troubling that these girls find it more important to attract attention in this way, entirely fashioned for the pleasure of the male gaze, rather than expressing their true personalities, passions or achievements.

Councilwoman Christy Weir :

The timing [of the proposed balloon ban] was good in a way because we had a presentation on our agenda on recycling, it [waste] just ends up in our rivers and creeks and that's not good for the environment.

Jack Dalrymple :

The industry's presentation has some very real reasons why the goal has become more difficult, many of these items they've mentioned realistically could not have been expected.

Paul Ryan :

Thank you for putting up with my presentation.

Ragini Verma :

It certainly does not resemble the imaging presentation of traumatic brain injury or concussion, although they present with clinical symptoms which are concussion-like, it says something happened, and we need to look further, and that's about it.
