Explanation
A part is a piece of something bigger. It can be a physical piece, like part of a machine, or a non-physical piece, like part of a story or plan. When something is divided, each piece is called a part. The word is very common in daily life and helps explain how things are connected to a whole. You can also use it to talk about someone’s role in an activity or situation.
