How to use "Substitution" in context?
Substitution is a process of choosing one thing in place of another. It is a way to replace something that is not working, is no longer available, or is disliked. Substitution can be used in many different situations, but it is often most useful when unexpected things happen.
For example, if your bicycle's tire is flat, you can use a piece of cloth to replace the tire. If you run out of honey, you can use sugar to make your tea. Substitution can be used in many different ways to solve problems.
While substitution can be a helpful tool, it can also be dangerous.
