Definition: An event or occurrence.

Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! You’ve got the dictionary definition – “an event or occurrence” – that’s a good start, it’s true. But "incidents," you see, is a little more specific for you. Think of it like this: an event can be anything, right? A beautiful sunrise, a friendly chat with a friend - those are events! But “incident” usually refers to something that happens , often unexpectedly, and might even be a bit… noteworthy. It could be good or bad, big or small. Let’s say you tripped on the stairs – that is an incident. Or maybe there was a sudden rainstorm - another incident! It's something that stands out from the usual flow of things. So, "incidents" mean specific events or occurrences – but ones that often have some kind of impact or are remembered for a reason. Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about how “incident” differs from just “event”?
