👉 To grasp and pull with the fingers or fingernails.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! We’ve got a word today that needs a little hook – “picking.” The dictionary tells us, clear as can be, “To grasp and pull with fingers, you see!” Think of it like this: when you're picking a lock, Or picking berries from a branch, quick-like! It’s using your fingers – delicate and light, To get something loose, or just to delight. Like picking flowers for a pretty display, Or picking at a loose thread along the way. So "picking" means to take hold with care, And pull something gently, beyond compare! Do you have any questions about this word we’ve found? Let's discuss it as a class!
