Let's learn field.

As a noun, it's often a place, covered in grass, with a fence or line around it. A field might be for animals and crops, or for playing sports on.

The sheep are in this field.
There are 22 players on the field.

A field can be the area or subject that someone works in.

She is one of the experts in her field.

Field is also a verb. If you field a ball in cricket or baseball, you catch it and throw it to where it should be. At work, people field questions or calls – it's similar, you're dealing with a problem.

She is so good at fielding the ball.
I've been fielding calls from angry customers all day!

So, a field is a place for animals, crops or sports, the area you work in, and it's a verb for dealing with problems.
