Long and short
key notes :
📏 What is “Long” and “Short”?
- Long means something that has more length.
- Short means something that has less length.
- We use these words to compare two objects.
✏️ Examples

🔍 How to Compare Length
- Place objects side by side.
- Make sure they start from the same point.
- The one that extends more is longer.
- The one that does not extend as much is shorter.
📐 Using Tools
- We can measure length using a ruler or scale.
- Length is measured in centimeters (cm) or meters (m).
🧠 Important Points

- These are comparison words.
- Always compare at least two objects.
