Explanation
A crowd means a large group of people gathered in one place. It can be at a concert, a sports game, a festival, or even on a busy street. Sometimes a crowd is exciting and fun, such as when cheering for a team, but other times it may feel overwhelming, like in traffic or during emergencies. “Crowd” can also be used as a verb, meaning people gather together in a space. Crowds often represent energy, noise, and activity. However, they can also cause discomfort when too many people are close together in small spaces.
