Talk about giving food to a person or animal.
The idea
Use feed with the person or animal receiving food. The past is fed; you can also name the food.
Examples
- I feed the cat every morning.
- She feeds her baby with a spoon.
- We fed the birds yesterday.
- Please feed the horse some carrots.
- They feed the rabbits fresh leaves.
- Who fed the dog last night?
