Can you guess which word goes with which picture?

One of the places that we hear this term often is when travelling on an airplane. If you take luggage with you on the plane where you sit down at your seat, they will ask you to 'stow' your carry on bag. They want you to put your bag in the overhead compartment during the flight time.

​

​Have you ever gone anywhere on a airplane? Did you stow your bags properly?

Stow - Pack or store (an object) carefully and neatly in a particular place.

​

​These ladies are stowing their luggage in the compartments above their seats on a airplane. This keeps the luggage secure during the flight.

​

​Consultants are people who have answers to problems
