Definition: A place where items may be accumulated or routinely kept.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look!
That dictionary definition is quite grand, you see – “A place where items may be accumulated or routinely kept.” Let's break that down for clarity.
“Accumulated” means things are
added
to it, right? Like little by little, over time. Think of collecting seashells on a beach, adding one more with each tide!
And "routinely kept" tells us this place isn’t just a temporary spot – it's a regular, ongoing home for those items. It's where things
stay
.
So, when we say “stores,” think of shops and markets, big and small,
Where you can buy things, stand up tall,
And shelves are brimming, full to the core –
That’s what a ‘store’ is, wanting more!
Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about how "stores" function or where we find them?
