You are showing off your ability to recite when you repeat the entire text of The Gettysburg Address, or name all the past winners of your town’s asparagus eating contest.

Recite entered the English language as a legal term but is now more often used in the realms of education, literature, and religion. Children in school may be assigned a famous poem to recite in front of the class or be tested on how well they can recite their multiplication tables. In many religious traditions, being able to recite passages of sacred texts is an important part of practicing the religion.
