Definition: Something that is owned.
Alright class, settle down and listen close to me,
We’re tackling words today, you see!
That dictionary definition – “Something that is owned” – it’s true,
But “properties” has a meaning broader, fresh and new.
Think of it like this: a house, a car, a shiny shoe,
These are all
properties
, things we rightfully accrue!
It's not just about owning something, that’s the basic start,
But also describes its
characteristics
, right from the heart!
Let’s say you have a block of wood - it’s sturdy and strong,
Its
properties
are: dense, hard, where it belongs.
Or maybe water – liquid, flows free and bright,
Its
properties
include its temperature, shining light!
So "properties" means qualities, traits you can define,
Like shape, size, color, or a substance’s design.
It's about what something
is
, not just who it's with,
A wonderful word to learn, a valuable myth –
(Okay, not a myth, but a helpful key!)
Does that make sense? Raise your hand if you agree!
Now let’s move on and explore this concept, you see!
