Phrase | back |
Text | In this podcast, the word "back" means in return or in response, doing the same thing to a person that he or she just did to oneself: "I'm pretty busy right now. Can I call you back in half an hour?" The word "back" also means putting something into its previous position: "You can look at the photo albums, but please put them back when you're done." The phrase "back home" refers to the place one comes from, especially if one no longer lives there: "Do you usually go back home for Thanksgiving?" Finally, the phrase "back to" refers to a time in the past, or something from history: "The first reports on this topic date back to the 1920s." |
