In three or more sentences explain why the word bee is meaningless to a non-English speaker.?

The word "bee" is meaningless to a non-English speaker because it has no inherent connection to the buzzing insect it represents. The word itself is an arbitrary label assigned by English speakers to that specific creature. A non-English speaker would need to learn this association through language acquisition, as the sound "bee" has no universal or inherent meaning associated with the insect.
