Solved examples: Identifying objects 'on' or 'under' other things

📚 Quick Study Guide

• ⬆️ 'On' indicates that one object is positioned directly above and in contact with another object. Think of a book on a table.
• ⬇️ 'Under' indicates that one object is positioned directly below another object, often covered or supported by it. Picture a cat under a chair.
• 📏 To accurately determine 'on' or 'under', visualize a straight line connecting the two objects. If the line is vertical and the first object is higher, it's 'on'. If the line is vertical and the first object is lower, it's 'under'.
• 🤔 Consider the relationship between the objects, not just their positions. Is one object supporting the other? Is one object covered by the other?
