What does In Full really mean?

"In Full" means that something is complete or whole, without any parts or elements missing. It is like having a pizza with all the slices intact, or a puzzle with every piece in its place. When we say that something is "in full," it means that it is not lacking anything and is as complete as it can be.

Let me give you a couple of examples to help you understand this idea better:

Imagine you have a jar filled with colorful candies, and you are asked to count them. You start counting: one, two, three... and so on until you reach ten. But suddenly you notice that the jar is empty, and there are no more candies left. In this case, you have not counted the candies "in full" because you stopped before reaching the end. If you had counted the candies in full, you would have continued counting until you reached the last candy, ensuring that you did not miss any.

Another example is when you watch a movie. Let's say you start watching a movie and get really into it, enjoying the storyline and the characters' adventures. But suddenly, right in the most exciting part, your friend turns off the TV. You would probably feel disappointed because you didn't get to see the movie "in full." If you had watched the movie in full, you would have seen the whole story, from the beginning to the end, without any interruptions.

So, when we say something is "in full," it means that it is complete and without any missing parts. It's like having a whole picture instead of just a piece, or like having a complete set of toys instead of just a few. It ensures that we have everything we need and don't miss out on anything important.

Now, let me ask you a question to check your understanding. Can you give me an example of something that you would want to experience or have "in full"? Take your time to think about it!
