Okay, imagine you have a piece of paper with a bunch of dots on it. Each dot has a special spot on the paper called a coordinate, which is like its address. The coordinate tells you where the dot is located on the paper.
Now, imagine you connect all of the dots that have the same coordinate together with a line. That line is called a coordinate curve. It shows you where all of the dots with that coordinate live on the paper.
So, let's say you have a bunch of dots with the coordinate (2,3). If you connect all of those dots with a line, that line is the coordinate curve for the coordinate (2,3). It shows you where all of the dots with that coordinate are on the paper.
Coordinate curves help us understand where things are located on a graph or in space. We can use them to visualize patterns and relationships between different points on a graph.
