🇬🇧 Piano meaning: English Vocabulary Flash Card

A piano is a large musical instrument that usually stands on the floor and has a long row of black and white keys. When you press a key, a small hammer inside hits a string and makes a musical sound. You can play high, tinkly notes or low, deep notes, and you can use both hands to play many notes at the same time. People use pianos to play songs, make up music, and play loudly or softly, like whispering or shouting with sounds instead of words.
