I think of hokeh as the particular nice or not so nice appearance of the out-of-focus stuff. I would talk, instead of depth of field and show a pair of pictures, one at large aperture and the same scene at very small aperture. Of bokeh per se is the subject, then I would attempt to show the same out-of-focus background it the lens that you think has nice hokeh and one that you think is terrible.
