Gis forGramophone
A gramophone, or phonograph, is a device that was used for playing recorded sound from the 1870s through the 1980s. More recently, gramophones were called record players or turntables. Gramophones play records, large round, black platters.
The original gramophone did not need electricity to run, with the record being turned by winding it up, and the sound was amplified simply by the shape of the "horn" you can see in the picture at the top of the gramophone. The sound itself comes from the vibrations of a small needle, called a stylus, in a spiral groove on the surface of the record.
Something is grown if it has finished growing and reached its full size, or has been growing for some time. The dog in the picture is fully grown.

A keystone is the stone at the top center of an arch. It holds all the other stones in place, which is why it is called the keystone. Keystones are often decorated quite elaborately.
Limestone is a rock made up of calcium carbonate. It is formed by sediments at the bottom of the sea compressing over time into rock. The calcium carbonate in limestone comes from thousands and thousands of shells of sea creatures.
Limestone is an ingredient of mortar, cement and toothpaste. The stone itself can be carved into statues or cut into blocks to make buildings out of.
