Deposition (noun) has two common senses: a formal statement given under oath, especially in a legal proceeding, and the process of depositing sediment or materials. In either sense, the word is used in formal or technical contexts, and stresses on the second syllable. It denotes a formal testimony or layer-by-layer accumulation in natural or geological processes.
