🇬🇧🇪🇸 aeroplane - avión : English Lesson

Meaning of "aeroplane" ("avión"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.

An aeroplane is a big machine that can fly high in the sky. It has wings that stay still (they don’t flap like a bird’s) and one or more engines that push it forward very fast. Because it moves so quickly, air lifts it up, and it can carry people and things from one place to another through the air. Aeroplanes take off from and land on special roads called runways at airports.
