Cách sử dụng
'Counterbalance' is a word that we use when we want to say that something balances or offsets something else. For example, imagine you are holding a heavy object in one hand. To keep your body balanced, you need to hold something of equal weight in your other hand. That means the object in your other hand is acting as a 'counterbalance' to the first object. In everyday language, we may also use the word 'counterbalance' to talk about how different factors or ideas balance each other out. For example, if an argument is made up of two opposing points of view, we might say that one point 'counterbalances' the other. Overall, 'counterbalance' is a word that helps us talk about balance and equality, and how different factors or ideas can work together to create harmony.
