Heard for Dummies

Alright, so the word "heard" is a way of saying that you have listened to something with your ears. When you hear something, it means that sound waves have traveled through the air and into your ears, where they are processed by your brain. So, for example, when someone talks to you, you are able to understand their words because you hear them.

Another way to think of "heard" is that it's the past tense of the word "hear", which means to perceive or become aware of a sound. For instance, if your friend tells you a joke and you understand it, then you have "heard" the joke. It's like when you're outside and you hear birds singing, or when you're in the kitchen and you hear the sound of sizzling bacon.

So, to sum it up, when you "hear" something, it means you have perceived a sound with your ears and understood it. It's like your brain is having a conversation with your ears, processing the sounds that come their way. So, next time you hear something, remember that your ears are doing their job and sending signals to your brain. It's pretty amazing how our bodies work, isn't it?
