Two-Letter Gates (Gate-Based Meaning)
📘 Definition (8th-grade level):
Some meanings come from looking at two letters together in a word. These pairs act like gates—they control how meaning flows. The order of the letters matters: flipping them reverses the direction, and changes the meaning.
Think of a gate as something you enter or exit—depending on the direction.
