Hi, I would like to understand how diffraction works in layman's terms. Why does a wave entering a corner or a slit (in the case of light) bend?
I found an answer here, but it doesn't make a lick of sense.

What is a probability amplitude (also in layman's terms) and how does that cause a wave to diffract?
