Definition: One who is eligible.

Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look! You’ve got the dictionary there, and it tells you “one who is eligible,” which is quite a phrase, isn’t it? Let’s break it down in a way that makes sense. “Eligible” means ready or qualified . Think of it like this: It's about having the right stuff , the things you need to do something. Like, if you want to join a sports team, you have to be eligible - meaning you’re old enough, strong enough, and meet all the rules! Or maybe you want to vote in an election – you have to be eligible, which means you've reached the legal age and registered your voice. It often describes someone who meets a certain requirement . Let me put it another way with a little rhyme: "Eligible, eligible, that’s the key, To do something special, successfully!" Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about what "eligible" means? Don't be shy!
