Down
What is "down"?
Down refers to a type of feather found in birds that is characterized by its smooth and fluffy texture. It is made up of soft, fine filaments that lack the interlocking barbs found in other feathers, giving it a delicate and airy appearance. The down feathers are typically located beneath the outer feathers, close to the bird's body, and serve several important functions. They provide excellent insulation, trapping air and creating a layer of warmth next to the bird's skin, which helps regulate body temperature in both cold and hot environments. The fluffy structure of down feathers also allows for efficient buoyancy, aiding birds in floating on water surfaces. Down is highly valued for its insulating properties and is often used in the manufacturing of bedding, clothing, and insulation materials.
Example
The duck's down kept it warm during the winter.
The jacket is filled with down for extra warmth.
After the bird molted, its down feathers were scattered on the ground.

down, încercare

What is a "down"?
A down in football is one of the four chances the offensive team has to move the ball at least ten yards. Each time the ball is snapped, the team is given a down to try and advance the ball. If the team gains ten or more yards, they are awarded a new set of four downs. If they do not, they either lose possession of the ball or attempt a kick, such as a punt or field goal.
Example
After three unsuccessful downs, they punted the ball away.
On second down, the wide receiver caught a short pass for a gain of three yards.
The offense managed to gain eight yards on down.
