Body-part words for clear everyday descriptions

Learn a body-part noun with a simple location or action. A labelled illustration helps connect the word to its intended area.

Use the pattern in context

Start with head, hand, arm, leg and foot. Use a possessive when talking about a particular person: my hand, her foot. Notice irregular plurals such as feet and teeth. A precise everyday description can identify a location: My left hand is cold. The picture deck below is a vocabulary reference, and the grammar links explain possessives and plurals.

Examples to compare

  • Possessive: My hand is cold.
  • Irregular plural: My feet are wet.
  • Location: The glove is on her left hand.

Limits and useful distinctions

A word label is not a medical explanation or diagnosis. Body images are simplified cues and cannot establish the cause of a symptom. If you use these words in a real conversation, state what you actually mean and ask for clarification when an unfamiliar term is used.
