🇬🇧 Udder meaning: English Vocabulary Flash Card

An udder is the soft, bag-shaped body part on animals like cows, goats, and sheep that hangs down between their back legs and makes milk. It has one big main part with several little tubes called teats or nipples where the milk comes out when the animal is milked or when a baby animal drinks. Farmers take good care of the udder because it is very important for feeding baby animals and making milk for people to drink.

I drew a picture of a cow, but I forgot the udder, so everyone thought it was just a very disappointed dog.

I tried to hug the cow, missed, and ended up accidentally high-fiving its udder instead.

If an udder had a job interview, it would say, "My special skill is turning grass into milk. You’re welcome, world."

An udder actually has four separate sections called quarters, so a cow’s udder is like a four-room milk apartment.

At dawn a child follows a cow to the yard. They wash the udder gently, wipe the udder clean, then squeeze the udder and milk spurts into a bucket. The calf nudges the udder, hungry and warm. The child tastes the fresh milk, smiles, and pats the cow’s full udder with thanks.
