Strangled for Dummies

Hey there! So, "strangled" is a word that is used to describe the action of someone applying pressure to someone else's neck to stop them from breathing. It's kind of like when you squish a balloon really hard and the air can't get out. When someone is strangled, it can be really dangerous because they can't get enough oxygen to their brain, and that's super important for us to be able to think and stay alive.

There's also another way to use the word "strangled." Sometimes, when we use this word, we're talking about something that is being restricted or held back, like when you're trying to tell a story but you keep getting interrupted. It's like the story is being strangled and can't come out fully.

So, imagine trying to take a deep breath but something is stopping you from getting all the air you need. That's kind of like being strangled - someone or something is stopping you from getting what you need. It can be a really scary and uncomfortable feeling.

I hope that helps you understand what "strangled" means! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
