The keyword "extends" is used when a class inherits properties from another class. class Cat extends Animal{ // } "extend" is not a Java keyword, as far as I know.

Extend is an invalid word in Java, no way extend is found in a Java code

Extend does not belong to Java. Extends represents the inheritation keyword. When a class inherits attributes and methods from another class, you write: class AClass extends AnotherClass We also call "AClass" subclass, and "AnotherClass" super class, as the subclass always inherits properties from a super class
