Definition: A continuous, humming noise, as of bees; a confused murmur, as of general conversation in low tones.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look!
We’ve got a word today – “buzz” – it’s quite a curious thing. The dictionary gives us a lovely little clue, let's see what we can do:
“A continuous, humming noise, as of bees…” Think about a hive, warm and sweet, with busy workers working hard to meet
The queen’s demands, a buzzing sound so true, that’s one kind of “buzz” for me and you!
“…a confused murmur, as of general conversation in low tones.”
Now imagine a room full, lots of folks around, chatting quietly, with hardly any sound. A little bit hazy, a gentle, flowing stream, that’s another meaning, like a conversational dream!
So “buzz” can mean a bee's happy hum, or a quiet chatter, softly come.
Does that make sense? Any questions about the "buzz" we’ve discussed? Don’t be shy, let your thoughts be adjusted!
