Alright class, settle down, letβs take a look today,
At the word βlonger,β and what it does convey!
The dictionary gives us a helpful clue,
βDistance between points, for me and you!β
It says "longer" means πhow farπ things extend,
From one end to another, without end!
Think of a road, stretching out so wide,
Or a river flowing, with nowhere to hide.
Itβs about the
horizontal
space, you see,
Measuring width β that's key for me!
Like a table, long and grand, or a hallway bright,
βLongerβ describes their length, with all its might!
So remember this: itβs distance defined,
Between two points, of every kind.
Does anyone have an example they can share? Let's hear your thought, let's really compare!
