Definition: One who has been released from something.

Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! That’s a good start – you’ve read the dictionary nicely! “Exempt” is a word that needs a little explaining, it's true. Let’s put it this way, and I’ll rhyme for you: “ Exempt means free from duty, or rule, it’s clear, Like an exception, banishing fear!” Think of it like this - if there's a rule that everyone must follow, someone who is “exempt” doesn’t have to. They are released! It could be exempt from taxes, exempt from a test, or exempt from a certain requirement. For example: "A small business might be exempt from some regulations." Does that make sense? Do you want me to give you another example, or perhaps explain it in a different way?

Definition: An act of exempting.

Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! That’s a good start – “An act of exempting” - that gives us a clue, doesn't it? Let's break it down with a little rhyme to make it clear: “Exemption” means to be released from care, A special rule, beyond compare. Think of it like this: If you’re exempt from a task, you don't have to do it. For example, maybe a student is exempt from a pop quiz because they’ve done all their homework – that means they are free from the requirement! Or perhaps a business might be exempt from certain taxes. It’s about being outside of something, not included in it. Like an exception, but specifically focused on avoiding a rule or obligation. Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about exemptions and why they're important to understand?
