What does Cancellation really mean?

Hey there! So, "cancellation" is a word we use when we want to say that something has been stopped, or called off. It's like when you have plans to go to the park, but then it starts raining, so you have to cancel your plans because it's not safe or fun to go outside in the rain.

But "cancellation" can also mean when we want to erase something, like when you're writing with a pencil and you make a mistake, so you use the eraser to cancel out the mistake and write it again.

So, "cancellation" basically means to stop or erase something that was supposed to happen. It's like hitting the pause button on something or making it disappear.

I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any other questions about it.
