| Phrase | to break up with |
| Text | In this podcast, the phrase "to break up with" someone means to no longer be someone's boyfriend or girlfriend: "They broke up after dating for years." But, the phrase "something/someone is breaking up" means that it is difficult to hear or see them, such as on the telephone: "I can't hear you; you're breaking up. Hang up and I'll call you back." Or, "I was watching the football game when the signal broke up and I didn't get to watch the second half." |
