| Phrase | character |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "character" means any text that takes up space in a message or document: "This business card doesn't allow enough characters for my full name." Another meaning for the word "character" is a person in a story, usually not a real person: "The main character in the Harry Potter books is Harry Potter." As a noun, "character" can be used to describe someone who is different from other people or strange in some way. If there is someone who does strange things for no reason, he might described as "a character": "I didn't know that Lia's brother was such a character until I met him last week." It's common to hear people say, "he/she is quite a character." From this, people will know that this person is a little different or is unique. |
