feature
/ˈfiːtʃə/
When used as a noun to describe a product, 'feature' usually refers to a specific tool or capability that makes the item useful. When talking about someone's face, we often use 'features' in the plural (e.g., "strong features") to refer to the eyes, nose, and mouth collectively. As a verb, it is most commonly used when describing movies, music albums, or art galleries to highlight who the main star or artist is.
