Definition: The action of defending, of protecting from attack, danger or injury.

Alright class, settle down and let’s take a peek, At the word "defence," a concept we must seek! The dictionary gives us a helpful line, “The action of defending, a truly noble sign!” Let's break it down, nice and slow, you see, It means to protect – for you and also me. Think of knights in armor, brave and bold, Their shields and swords, a story to be told! Or maybe a fence around a garden bright, Keeping out rabbits with all its might! It’s about stopping harm, or danger's sting, A shield against the things that trouble and bring. So “defence” means guarding, shielding with care, Protecting ourselves from worry and despair! Do you understand it now, my dear students true? Any questions for me? Let’s discuss anew!
