Learn what the word 'innate' means and how it relates to natural traits and characteristics.
Hello Vienna! The word 'innate' means something that you are born with, or something that comes naturally to you without needing to learn it. For example, if you have a special talent for singing or drawing that you started doing as a little kid, that talent could be described as innate because you didn't have to learn it; it just seems to be a part of you!
Another example is when babies are born, they have certain reflexes, like the ability to suck their thumb or cry when they are hungry; these are innate behaviors. It's like having a built-in feature, just like a bird knows how to fly or a fish knows how to swim right from the start. So, innate things are those special traits and abilities that you have from the moment you come into the world!
