Birth is called the fact of being born : coming out of the seed , the egg or the mother's womb . Birth implies the end of gestation and the emergence of a new living being .
In the case of people, birth is childbirth . At that moment, the individual that gestated in its mother's womb for about nine months is given birth and begins its independent existence.
It is often said that birth is the beginning of life . In any case, this beginning is a reason for religious, moral and even legal debate since the consideration of the existence of the human being can be located weeks or months before birth, with the fetus developing inside the womb.
In a broader sense, the beginning of something is called birth. For example: "The birth of the company occurred in 1984, when Bob McTroyzer partnered with Helen Laffonet" , "There were many men and women involved in the birth of the club" , "The triumph of Real Madrid marked the birth of a new It was in Spanish sport .
Let's see below some of the most common synonyms of this term, both figuratively and literally: source, origin, start, beginning, departure, outbreak, beginning, departure and beginning . Similarly, some of its antonyms are final, end , and death . It is important to note that in many cases we do not talk about birth and death with the maximum degree of precision or intensity, as is often the case in its more literal use, but rather we assign broader and more gradual meanings to them.
While the birth of a person is the exact moment in which their mother gives birth, although this can take place in various ways and with potential complications, and their death occurs when they take their last breath, when talking about companies or ideas. The period represented by these two terms is much longer and less precise. In fact, in cases like these we also talk about emergence and decline , for example, two words, which seem to indicate slower processes.
The birth of a company usually includes a series of activities that extend over days, weeks or months. It may start with an idea that is then shared with another person and evolves through various discussions until it becomes more complex and concrete. Once the objective is clear, it is time to think about the economic and legal means necessary to register it, for which it is likely that various procedures will be necessary that take even more time.
Taking all this, the idea plus the mandatory documentation, the company may need a building in which to establish its domicile. Finally, you can proceed to "open your doors", a symbolic expression that refers to the beginning of your activities. Therefore, its birth can indicate the day on which that initial idea was conceived, the day of its official opening or that entire construction period.
Its decline, on the other hand, can also be the day when its owners were forced to close their doors or recent times, when its performance began to decline irreversibly.
The place where some element has its origin is also called the source: "Yesterday we went to see the source of the San Bautista River, at the top of a mountain range," "We tried to reach the source of the stream, but we couldn't do it due to the evil time" .
Birth, manger or nativity scene , finally, is the name of the representation of the birth of Jesus through figures or actors. The central figure in these scenes is the Baby Jesus .
