What is a "brick"?

A brick is a small, rectangular block made from clay, concrete, or other materials, which is hardened by baking or firing. It is commonly used in construction for building walls, pavements, and other structures due to its strength, durability, and ability to retain heat. Bricks are often stacked and held together with mortar to create strong, long-lasting surfaces. They are valued for their natural appearance, ease of maintenance, and ability to withstand weather conditions.
