Alright, so "marred" is a word that means something is damaged or spoiled in some way. It's like when you have a nice clean piece of paper and you accidentally spill some juice on it, making it all messy and not so nice anymore. When something is marred, it's not as perfect or beautiful as it used to be. It's like when you have a picture and there's a big smudge on it, taking away from the picture's beauty. That smudge has marred the picture.

So, to put it into simpler terms, imagine you have a delicious chocolate cake. But then, someone drops it and it gets all squashed and messy. That cake is now marred - it's not as yummy and pretty as it was before. It's like when you draw a really nice picture, and then accidentally smudge the ink all over it. That smudge has marred your drawing.

So, in general, when something is marred, it's been spoiled or made less nice in some way. It's not as perfect or beautiful as it used to be. And that's what the word "marred" means.
