Event Description

25 лютого. День пістолета

Чи знаєте ви, що минуло майже 500 років з моменту появи перших пістолетів? У дев'ятнадцятому столітті з'явилися револьвери. У 1835 році Семюель Кольт отримав патент на перший в історії револьвер. Через рік він отримав патент на американську модель. У цей день люди згадують часи Семюеля Кольта та черпають натхнення, щоб випустити чудові нові патенти на пістолети.

Слово дня: “ЗБРОЯ” -  знаряддя для нападу або оборони.

Сучасна зброя небезпечна, але ефективна та має високу точність.

The word of the day: wound (verb)

Meaning: to damage an area of the body, especially by making a cut or hole in the skin.

Example: The police chief was badly wounded in the explosion.
