🇬🇧🇨🇳 tyre - 胎 : English Lesson
noun
Meaning of "tyre" ("胎"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.
A tyre is a thick rubber ring that fits around the outside of a wheel on things like cars, bikes, buses, and scooters. It is usually filled with air, which makes the ride smoother and softer instead of hard and bumpy. The patterns on the tyre help it grip the ground so the vehicle doesn’t slide around too easily. Without tyres, wheels would be loud, rough, and slippery, and vehicles would be much harder to control.
