Definition: A character or glyph representing an idea, concept or object.
Alright class, settle down, letβs take a look today,
At the word βsymbols,β in a thoughtful way!
The dictionary gives us a helpful clue,
"A character or glyph β it's really true!"
Now, let's break that down, nice and slow,
Think of symbols as seeds you need to sow.
βCharacterβ
is like letters in a name,
Like 'A', 'B', βCβ - a familiar game!
But symbols go deeper than just writing lines,
They represent something that brightly shines.
"Glyph"
means a picture or a sign, you see,
Like a heart for love, or a tree for liberty!
So, "symbols" mean things standing in for more,
An
idea
, a
concept
, knocking at the door!
Think of a flag - itβs not just cloth and thread,
It symbolizes a nation, bravely spread.
Or a wedding ring β a circle bright and true,
It symbolizes forever, me and you!
Does that make sense? Do you have any questions to share? Let's discuss!
