A 'layer' is a single thickness of material spread out or covering a surface. 🥞 Think of it like the layers in a cake, each one stacked on top of the other. It can also refer to a level or stratum in a hierarchy or system. For example, clothing can be put on in layers. Layers help to separate or group things. From geology to fashion!
The word 'layer' comes from the Old French word 'laiier,' which meant 'to leave' or 'to let lie.' This evolved to mean something that is laid down or spread out. The concept of something lying flat or covering another is the core idea. 📜
