🇬🇧🇪🇸 oil - aceite : English Lesson
noun
Meaning of "oil" ("aceite"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.
Oil is a smooth, slippery liquid that can come from plants, like olives or sunflowers, or from animals. People often pour oil into a pan to cook food so it doesn’t stick and burn. Oil can make food crispy, like french fries, and helps heat spread evenly. It feels greasy to touch, shines a little, and is thicker than water. We don’t drink cooking oil by itself, but we use it to help make tasty foods.

Some cooking oils come from tiny seeds like sunflowers—so when you eat fries, a sunflower might secretly be helping them taste good.
