@J-T4242 if I am outside or inside something enormous that covers me so that the light or sun doesn't reach me, can I use , shadow or shade ? I think you understood here what I meant?

What is the difference between Shade and shadow and Can I use "shadow or shade" if I am in one of them provided that I don't want the sun or light to reach me? ?Feel free to just provide example sentences.

Shadow is what something shows sue to the sunShade is something that provides cover

Like for example, “that trees shadow looks like a bird”“ it’s pretty hot out here let’s find some shade”

I mean you could say “let’s get cover under that shadow “ but that just doesn’t sound right

Shade is usually used when you are looking for cover under a shadow or something

Shade is the more natural time

Shadow is what something shows sue to the sun

Shade is something that provides cover

Like for example, “that trees shadow looks like a bird”

“ it’s pretty hot out here let’s find some shade”
