You absolutely have to successfully understand something in order to successfully explain what you understand.

However, you are able to successfully understand something without being even remotely capable of explaining it. My brain gets these mixed up though for some reason.

It's kind of like how all dogs are animals but not all animals are dogs. In this analogy then: explanation is to comprehension as dogs are to animals.
