What does Cavity really mean?

Sure thing! "Cavity" is a word that we use to describe a hole or space in something. For example, when we talk about our teeth, a cavity is a hole or space in a tooth that's caused by decay. It’s kind of like a little pit or gap in the tooth, and we want to make sure to take good care of our teeth so we can avoid getting cavities. Another way to think about it is like a little pocket or divot in something, like a piece of wood or a rock. You know how sometimes when you're walking along and you see a little hole in a tree or a rock? That's sort of like a cavity. It's just a little space or gap in something that's normally solid. So, when we talk about a cavity in our teeth, we mean that there's a little hole or space in the tooth, and we need to take care of it so it doesn't get any bigger. Can you think of any other examples of cavities in things? Let me know if you need me to explain anything else!
