The phrase "in tents" may sound like "intense" but it is actually spelled differently. The first syllable "in" is pronounced as /ɪn/, which means "within" or "inside". The second part "tents" is pronounced as /tɛnts/, referring to temporary shelters made of canvas or other similar material. Therefore, "in tents" means "inside temporary shelters". It is important to use proper spelling and pronunciation to avoid confusion and ensure clear communication.
