Being

Time you got around to sponsoring a child
The word being means much the same thing as "person". If something can feel and think, we can say that it is a "being". Men, women, and children are human beings.

Some people write stories or make movies about beings from other planets. Religions talk about supernatural beings like spirits, angels, devils, gods, or God.


Being is also a present tense part of the verb "to be".
