Iis forIron (device)
An iron is a device that is used for flattening out wrinkles in clothes. Irons have a handle at the top and a flat, smooth, metal bottom that is heated up. Once the bottom is hot it is rubbed over your clothes to smooth them out. Irons work better if the clothes are very slightly damp so many irons have a spray or steam feature.

Iron is also a type of metal.
