Spitting

Spitting is when you take saliva, which is the liquid that is in your mouth, and forcefully push it out of your mouth. Sometimes people spit when they have something in their mouth that they don't want to swallow, like gum or a bad taste. Some people spit when they are playing sports, like baseball or soccer, because they need to get rid of extra saliva in their mouth so they can breathe easier. Spitting can also be used as a way to show disapproval or disrespect towards someone or something, but it is not very nice to do. It's important to remember to only spit in appropriate places, like in a sink or outside on the ground, and to not spit on other people or things.
