Answer:

A primary source is something original from the time of an event.

Step-by-step explanation:

This could be photographs, journals, news articles from the time of the event, etc. Secondary sources are primarily created later on and usually sum up the ideas found in multiple primary sources.

Hope this helps! Have a nice day :)
