Hey there, it's great to see you! Today, we're going to talk about the phrase "put through." It's a common expression that we use when we want to describe a specific action or process. Now, let me break it down for you in a way that makes it easy to understand.

Have you ever tried to make a phone call? It's like when you pick up your phone and dial a number to reach someone, right? Well, "put through" is a similar kind of action, but instead of connecting with someone over a phone call, it can be used to mean connecting someone or something with a particular process or situation. It's like taking a path or a journey towards a specific destination.

Let's delve deeper into this, shall we?

Imagine you're in a big building with different rooms, and you have to reach a specific room from where you are. In order to get there, you need to go through some doors, hallways, and maybe even an elevator. Well, think of "put through" as the process of going through those doors, hallways, and elevator to reach your desired destination room.

Similarly, "put through" can also mean guiding someone or something through a complex or difficult situation. To explain it further, let's imagine you're playing a video game and you're stuck in a challenging level. You might ask for help from a friend who has completed that level before. They guide you, step by step, through the obstacles and challenges until you've successfully completed the level. Well, in this sense, they are "putting you through" the level, helping you navigate the difficulties.

So, to sum it up, "put through" means connecting someone or something with a particular process or situation, just like making a phone call connects you with another person. It can also mean guiding someone or something through a complex or difficult situation, similar to being guided through a challenging level in a video game. Remember, it's like taking a path or a journey towards a specific destination!

I hope that explanation made sense to you! If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask. Understanding new words can be tricky sometimes, but we'll get there together, step by step!
