# ax
|
||
|
||
## Definition:
|
||
|
||
An ax is tool used for cutting or chopping trees or wood.
|
||
|
||
* An ax usually has a long wooden handle with a large metal blade attached to the end.
|
||
* If your culture has a tool that is similar to an ax, the name of that tool could be used to translate “ax.”
|
||
* Other ways to translate this term could include “tree-cutting tool” or “wooden tool with blade” or “long-handled wood-chopping tool.”
|
||
* In one Old Testament event, the blade of an ax fell into a river, so it is best if the tool that is described has a blade that can come loose from the wooden handle.
