In explicit symmetry breaking, the equations of motion of a physical system are variant under the broken symmetry; by contrast, for spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB), these equations are invariant, but the entire system is not because its vacuum (background) is non-invariant. Further use for the SSB characteristic nonlinear realizations (Goldstone mode), and the group theoretical patterns involved.

"Domain wall" from continuous symmetry
For a discrete $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry for instance, in some patches of the Universe, it can spontaneously breaks $\mathbb{Z}_2$ and goes in the "right" minimum, while in some others patches it can go …
