Handing over packages
Delivering is the act of bringing something to its destination or recipient: The driver is delivering packages.
It extends to giving speeches or performances: She's delivering the keynote address.
In childbirth, delivering means bringing forth a baby: The doctor is delivering twins.
To deliver can also mean to fulfill a promise or expectation: The team is finally delivering on results.
