Definition: A rod, wire, or other structure for receiving or transmitting radio, television signals etc.

Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look! Today we’re tackling ‘aerial,’ and I think you’ll find it quite appealing. The dictionary gives us the key – “A rod, wire, or other structure for receiving or transmitting radio, television signals etc.” Let's break that down with a little rhyme: “An aerial, you see, is meant to be free, Catching waves for you and me! It’s like an antenna, reaching high, To bring the broadcasts from up in the sky!” Think of it like this: it's something that lifts signals – not physically, but in terms of getting them to where they need to go. It’s a pathway for information, bouncing off the air! So, "aerial" describes anything used to capture or send radio and TV waves. Does that make sense? Any questions before we move on?
