"Crude" can be used as both an adjective and a noun, with slightly different meanings:
As an adjective:
-
Simple and not skillfully done or made:
- "He made a crude table out of an old crate."
- "Their attempts to build a raft were rather crude."
-
Offensive or shocking:
- "He made a crude remark about her appearance."
- "The comedian's jokes were considered too crude for television."
-
(of a substance) in its natural state, before being processed or refined:
- "Crude oil"
- "Crude sugar"
As a noun:
- Petroleum in its natural state:
- "The price of crude oil has fluctuated dramatically."
Examples in sentences:
- "His drawing was a bit crude, but it was clear what he was trying to depict."
- "She apologized for her crude language."
- "The refinery processes crude oil into gasoline and other products."
I hope this helps! Let me know if you'd like more examples or have any other questions.
