I think if one is looking for a very easy to understand way of defining "well
temperament", one could simply say that it is an altered mean tone temperament,
or variation of mean tone temperments, that allow modulation through all keys.
One could go on too get into some basic terminology, as if one needs so general
and simple a definition to give, one is probably dealing with the uninitiated.
