'Charge' is a property defined in particles. How do we say, for eg; 'Electron is negatively charged.' ?

Charge is a fundamental physical property of matter that describes the amount of electrical force a particle possesses. It can be positive or negative and is measured in units of Coulombs (C).
Charge can be created through the transfer of electrons between objects. When two objects come into contact, electrons can be transferred from one to the other, resulting in a difference in charge between the two objects.
The two types of charge are positive and negative. Positive charge is associated with protons, which have a positive charge, while negative charge is associated with electrons, which have a negative charge.
Electricity is the flow of electrons from a negatively charged object to a positively charged object. The amount of charge an object has determines the strength of the electrical force it can exert and the amount of current that can flow through it.
Charge is measured in units of Coulombs (C) using an instrument called an electrometer. It can also be measured indirectly by measuring the electric field it produces or the current it generates in a circuit.
