How to use "Fasten" in context?
When we fasten something, we make it secure by connecting it to something else. We can fasten something to a backing, a post, or a wall. We can fasten something to ourselves, or to another person or object. We can fasten something with a knot, a cord, or a clip.
Fastenings can be simple or complicated, but they all have one thing in common: they make something secure. They can hold objects in place, keep us safe, or hold something together. Fastenings are essential for everyday tasks, from fixing a shirt to securing a boat to a dock.
