Happy Friday! Glad to see you're well.
Today's WordMaster follows nicely from yesterday's. If you've got a fire to put out, it's always nice to have one of these nearby!
- A fire extinguisher is a device used to extinguish (put out) a fire. It's usually tube-shaped with an attached hose through which water or pressurized gas, powder, or foam is sprayed onto a fire.
- fire extinguisher は、火を消す道具です。筒状の容器にホースがついていて、水、圧縮ガス、パウダー、泡などが出るようになっています。
- During yesterday's fire drill we learned how to use a fire extinguisher.
- Every office should keep at least one fire extinguisher on hand in case of an emergency.
Autumn begins tomorrow. It should be a great weekend to be out in the cool September sunshine. Enjoy it!
