What does Fetch really mean?

Hey there! So, the word "fetch" can mean a few different things, but I'll do my best to explain it in a way that makes sense to you. So, the first definition of "fetch" is when a dog goes and brings back a ball or a toy that you threw. Kind of like when you play fetch with a dog at the park. It's like the dog is going to "fetch" the ball for you.

The second definition of "fetch" is when you go and get something or bring something back. Like, if I asked you to fetch me a glass of water, I would be asking you to go get me a glass of water and bring it back to me.

Do you see how "fetch" can have different meanings depending on the situation? It's kind of like when someone asks you to bring them something, you're "fetching" it for them. It's like being a helpful assistant!

So, when you hear the word "fetch" in a conversation or in a book, you can try to think about whether it means bringing something back, like playing with a dog, or going to get something for someone else. I hope that helps you understand what "fetch" means! Keep practicing and you'll get the hang of it. You're doing a great job!
