Phrase | deal breaker |
Text | In this podcast, the phrase "deal breaker" means something that makes it impossible for one to do something, because it is unacceptable and cannot be negotiated: "The job pays well and is in a great location, but they told me that I would only have five days of vacation per year, and that was a deal breaker." An "ice breaker" is an activity designed to help people interact and feel more comfortable around each other: "The meeting began with a few ice breakers to help the attendees get to know each other." Finally, a "wind breaker" is a light jacket that is not very warm, but prevents the wind from making one too cold: "It can be pretty windy on the coast even in the middle of summer, so you might want to pack a wind breaker." |
