| Text | In this podcast, the word "bundle," refers to a group of individual services that are offered at one price: "The new company has a bundle of services, which includes Internet, phone, and cable services for $50 a month." A bundle can also be a number of things tied together: "Uwe untied the bundle of newspapers to look for yesterday's business section." A bundle is also a slang term for a large amount of money: "Going out to dinner and a movie can often end up costing a bundle!" Many American parents will refer to their small child as a "little bundle of joy": "My little bundle of joy will celebrate his second birthday next week!" To say someone is a "bundle of laughs" is to say that they are generally happy and easy to get along with: "Everyone just loves having Natalia around. She is a real bundle of laughs." |
