👉 One who has been released from something.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! That’s a good start – you’ve read the dictionary nicely! “Exempt” is a word that needs a little explaining, it's true. Let’s put it this way, and I’ll rhyme for you: “ Exempt means free from duty, or rule, it’s clear, Like an exception, banishing fear!” Think of it like this - if there's a rule that everyone must follow, someone who is “exempt” doesn’t have to. They are released! It could be exempt from taxes, exempt from a test, or exempt from a certain requirement. For example: "A small business might be exempt from some regulations." Does that make sense? Do you want me to give you another example, or perhaps explain it in a different way?
