Etymology

The word 'raindrops' originates from the combination of 'rain' and 'drops', referring to the individual droplets of water that make up rain. Rain is a natural phenomenon that occurs when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses and falls back to the Earth in the form of liquid droplets. The concept of raindrops has been observed and described by humans for centuries, playing a crucial role in agriculture, weather patterns, and the water cycle.
