Explanation

A document is a piece of written, printed, or digital information that provides facts, records, or evidence. Examples include passports, contracts, letters, school certificates, and online files like Word or PDF documents. People use documents to share information, keep records, or prove something legally. For example, you need travel documents (like a passport and visa) to fly internationally. “Document” can also be a verb, meaning to record or provide proof of events, research, or information. For instance, a scientist might document an experiment by writing notes or taking photos. Documents help preserve knowledge and confirm truth.
