🇬🇧 Rubber meaning: English Vocabulary Flash Card

Rubber is a special stretchy material that can bend, twist, and squish without breaking. It can come from the milky juice of certain tropical trees or be made in a factory. Because it is soft and springy, rubber is used for things like balls that bounce, erasers that rub out pencil marks, tires on cars and bikes, and stretchy bands. It’s great for anything that needs to bend, stretch, or bounce instead of snapping.
