Question Principle of Lift

Hello everyone,

I've been asked "What is the principle of lift". I've been told by some people that the wing gets pushed up and other ones tell me that the wing is getting sucked up I've found some information on the site but I do not really understand such scientific language (I'm a 14 yo who hasn't started Physics yet). If someone can provide me with a link which explains the theory in simplified form or tell me what is the principle of lift and how it happens I'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot guys in advance

Jimmy
