Ceema explains the usage of the words 'under', 'below', 'beneath', and 'underneath'. Each word is used in different contexts despite their similar meanings. 'Under' is used for three-dimensional objects, layers, numbers, and mental states. 'Below' is used for comparing levels on a plane surface, temperature, sea level, and instructions. 'Beneath' is used for being covered, emotions, and social positions. 'Underneath' is an exaggerated form of 'under'.
