What does Emptying really mean?

Alright, let's talk about "emptying." So, when we say something is "emptying," it means that it's becoming less full or even totally empty. Let me give you an example to help you understand it better. You know when you have a glass of water and you drink from it, right? Well, as you drink, the glass becomes less full and eventually might be completely empty. That action of the water leaving the glass is called "emptying." It's like when you have a backpack full of toys, and you take some toys out, the backpack is "emptying" because it's becoming less full.

Now, "emptying" can also refer to when you're getting things out of a container or a space, making it less full. So, maybe your backpack is "emptying" as you take toys out of it. Or when you're cleaning up your room and are taking things out of the drawers, you're "emptying" them.

So, whether it's the water leaving your glass, toys leaving your backpack, or things coming out of a space, "emptying" just means that something is becoming less full or is completely empty. Does that make sense? Is there anything else you want to know about "emptying"?
