What is the definition of Instances? ๐ ๐
Urgency of manner or words; an urgent request; insistence.
Alright class, settle down, letโs take a look!
Youโve come across the word โinstances,โ and the dictionary gives us a pretty specific definition โ urgency in how we speak and act, like needing something ๐right now๐, and pushing a little bit to get what you want.
Let's break that down a bit further, shall we? Think of it this way: "Instances" arenโt just about one single event, but rather
times
when these things happen. Itโs the ๐frequency๐ or ๐occurrence๐ of something being urgent or insistent.
For example:
๐ โThere were several instances of him interrupting.โ (Meaning he interrupted multiple times!)
๐ โThe patient presented with numerous instances of pain.โ (He experienced many episodes of pain.)
Itโs about showing a pattern, a repetition of feeling ๐urgent๐ or needing to ๐insist๐.
Does that make more sense? Do you have any questions about how โinstancesโ fits into a sentence, or perhaps want to brainstorm some examples yourselves? Don't be shy - let's explore this together!
