Before for Dummies

Alright, so "before" is kind of like the time or place that comes just earlier than another time or place. You can think of it like when you have breakfast in the morning, and then lunch comes before dinner. Before is like the step right before something else happens. It's like when you see a tree, and then you see a house before the tree. It's always the thing that happened or was there right before the other thing.

And "before" can also mean in front of something. Like when you're waiting in line at the store, the person in front of you is before you. It's like the order of things happening or being in a line.

So in a way, before can mean the time or place that comes earlier than another time or place, and it can also mean being in front of something in a line or order. It's a word that helps us understand the order of things and what happened or will happen next. So when we say 'before,' we're talking about what happened or what is in front of something else. It's like a way of organizing events or objects in our minds to understand what comes first and what comes next. Pretty cool, right?
