Cách sử dụng
The word 'wedge' is often used to describe a triangular or wedge-shaped object that is used to hold things in place or to separate/force things apart. For example, a doorstop can be a wedge-shaped object that is placed under a door to prevent it from closing. A wedge can also be used in sports, like golf, when hitting the ball with a wedge-shaped club to help lift the ball into the air. The word 'wedge' can even be used metaphorically to describe a situation where two opposing groups or ideas are being pushed apart, almost like a wedge being driven between them.
