Definition: To ask (someone) for something; to request.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look! You’ve got the dictionary definition – “to ask for something,” “to request” – that’s part of it, you see. But ‘required’ has a little more glee! Think about this: if your mom says, "Please wash your hands," she requests them clean. But if the school rules say, "Handwashing is required ,” it means it's not just a nice suggestion, no! It means it’s absolutely needed , you must do it – it’s part of the plan. So ‘required’ doesn’t just mean asking; it means something is essential and must be done . Like homework, or wearing your shoes, or following a rule – all required by design! Does that make sense? Any questions to clarify this rhyme?
