Hey there!

So, you want to know what the word "crease" means, huh? Well, no worries, I'm here to help you understand it easily and in a fun way!

Now, let's imagine you have a piece of paper in front of you. If you fold that piece of paper, you'll notice that it creates a line or a sort of a ridge where it was folded, right? That line or ridge is what we call a "crease." It's like a little mark that shows where the paper was bent or folded.

But hey, did you know that the word "crease" can also mean something else? It's true! So, let me tell you about another meaning of the word.

Have you ever seen a baseball game? Imagine the field where the game takes place. There's a special area on the field called the "crease," usually found near the pitcher's mound. It's a line that marks a boundary, separating different parts of the game. It's a bit like a special line that says, "Hey, this is where things change!"

So, whether it's that little line on a folded paper or the special boundary line in a baseball game, that's what "crease" means! It's pretty cool, isn't it? Now you know a couple of different meanings, and you can use the word "crease" to describe different things. How neat!

If you have any more questions or if there's anything else you'd like to know, feel free to ask. I'm here to help!

Keep up the great work!
