Missing for Dummies

Alright, so "missing" is a word that we use when something or someone can't be found or is not in its usual place. It's like when you look for your favorite toy and it's not where you usually keep it, so you say it's missing. Another example is when someone doesn't show up for a meeting or a class, we say they are missing because they're not there when they're supposed to be.

The word "missing" can also be used to describe a feeling of longing for someone or something that is not with us. For example, if you haven't seen your friend for a while and you really want to spend time with them, you might say that you're missing them. It's like there's a part of you that feels empty because that person or thing isn't there.

So, "missing" is like when you notice that something or someone is not where it should be, or when you feel a strong desire for something that is not present. It's all about things or people that are not there when they're supposed to be, or when you really want them to be. Does that make sense to you?
