Definition: A single, distinctive rock formation; an area having a preponderance of a particular rock or group of rocks.
Alright class, settle down now, letās take a look and see,
At the word āterrain,ā itās quite key!
The dictionary gives us a clue, you know,
āA single, distinctive rock formation, row by row.ā
Think of it like this: it's not just
any
land,
It has a special character, close at hand.
It might be mountains, steep and tall,
Or valleys low, where shadows fall.
The definition tells us, clear and bright,
āAn area having a preponderance... of a particular rock or group of rocks in sight!ā
That means the ground is made mostly of one type ā
Perhaps granite grey, or sandstone ripe!
So āterrainā describes
how
the land appears,
Its shape and texture, silencing fears.
Does that make sense to you? Any questions now?
