Picture one small block in a child's hand. On its own it is nothing — a cube, a bar, a shape. Put it down and set another on top, and a third, and a shape starts to appear that none of them had alone. That is the whole idea the word carries: many simple pieces, each one basic, each one useless by itself, together making something that stands. The same picture works for a wall of cut stone. It works again for things you cannot hold: cells in a body, sounds in a word, trust in a team.
