Friction- A force that acts upon objects to resist change in motion.

If you try to push a car up a slick, icy hill, it will be easier than trying to push the same truck up a dirt road with lots of gravel. Why? Because the dirt and gravel rub against the tires to help the truck resist motion.

The fact that you can walk without sliding is an example of friction.

When you fall, your skin rubs up against the floor, and you get wounds.
