Text The word "bound," in this podcast, refers to the way that the pages of a book are held together at one end: "This book is bound in beautiful brown leather." The phrase "bound to do (something)" or "bound to be (something)" means that something is very likely or probable: "You're bound to see Amaru at the meeting." The phrase "to be bound by (something)" means to have to do something, usually because of a law, rule, or regulation: "We are bound by law to pay our bills every month, or else we have to pay even more later as a penalty."
