Words are used to express thoughts, ideas and for general communication. Nothing strange or unusual here.
Some words can have more meanings than one, depending on the context they are used in, but what about normal, everyday words?
We don’t think too much about what most words mean when we use them, since we’ve known their meaning as long as far back as we can remember, since we’ve first used them.
Yet, sometimes these ordinary words can mean different things for different people.
A simple example, for some “family” refers to the people closest to you, whom you love and cherish, and for others the same word can be the people you can’t stand, but you have to tolerate, because you are blood relatives. See what we’re getting at?
Here we have collection of word definitions as can be interpreted by some people.
The explanations are absolutely hilarious, yet hold a ring of truth that will get you thinking, what is your definition of a word? Take a look.
