Word of the Day: Trunk

The word ‘trunk’, believe it or not, is used to refer to a number of things:

1.
The trunk of a car, which is referred to as ‘the boot’ in British English, is the rear part of a car in which we generally put things e.g. suitcases, shopping, dead people and spare wheels.

2.
An old wooden box used
to put things in.

3.
An elephant’s nose.

4.
The body of a tree.


That’s all for this week… have a good one :) Daniel
