Text | In this podcast, the word "bridge" means the part of a large ship that is higher than the rest of the ship, where people work to control the ship's speed and direction: "We were scared when we saw the frightened captain running toward the bridge." Normally a "bridge" is the part of a road that goes over a river: "Drive over the bridge and then turn left." The "bridge of (one's) nose" is the top part of one's nose, between one's eyes: "Her glasses always slide down the bridge of her nose."
