Teacher: Okay, let's talk about the word "twiner". Have you ever seen two plants growing close together and their stems or branches are twisting around each other like they're in a tight hug? That's what we call twining, and a "twiner" is something that does this twisting action.

Imagine if you had two long pieces of string, and you held one end of each string in your hands. If you started twisting one string around the other, you would see them twining together. That's exactly what a twiner does – it wraps itself around another object, like a tree or a fence, using its stem or branches. It's like the twiners are giving the object a big squeeze!

Now, sometimes this word can also be used to describe a person. Have you ever met someone who always wants to be connected to another person and do everything together, like they're inseparable? Well, we can say that person is a twiner too. They like to be close to someone else, just like the plants twining around each other.

So, in simple terms, a twiner is either a plant or a person that likes to twist around and be close to something or someone else. It's like they enjoy hugging or being connected in some way.

Does that make sense?
