Definition: The work involved in performing an activity; exertion.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look!
You’ve asked about “efforts,” and the dictionary gave you a good start – “the work involved in performing an activity; exertion.” Let's break that down a little further, shall we?
Think of it like this:
Efforts are the
doing
– the trying!
It’s not just about
wanting
to do something, but actually putting in the energy and work.
It could be anything, really. Let's rhyme a little to help you see:
Trying your best on a test, that's an
effort
, I confess!
Building with blocks, brick by brick, requires a focused
effort
quick.
Learning new skills, step by step, takes dedication and effort kept.
"Exertion" is key there – it means you’re
using
your strength, your energy, to accomplish something. It's not passive; it’s active!
So, "efforts" mean putting in the time, the focus, and the power to get a task done or reach a goal. Do you have any questions about that? Would you like me to give you some examples of different types of efforts – maybe physical, mental, or creative?
