Actually, I didn't. I brusquely summarized some quite technical painting terms. (Marvelous Marvin knows this and is kindly not pointing this out. He is very knowledgable about scumbling and layered paint effects.)
Technically speaking, as I understand the terms, a scumble (which contains white) lightens what is underneath it and a glaze darkens it.
Reasonable minds have discussed the terms at length at
