How to use "Rumor" in context?
Rumors are a popular topic around the world. They are often the first things to spread through social media, and they can have a huge impact on people's beliefs and attitudes.
Some rumors are just stories that someone heard from another person. Others are based on real, but unproven, events.
Whatever their origin, rumors can be incredibly destructive. They can lead to false assumptions and harmful beliefs. They can damage relationships and upset people's lives.
But rumors can also be constructive. They can help us to understand other people and to learn more about the world around us.
