Episode Title | Traveling by Train |
Phrase | coach |
Text | The word "coach," in this podcast, means the least expensive, least comfortable seats on a train or plane: "If you want to save your money for the rest of your trip, I suggest traveling coach." A "coach" is also a box with four wheels that is pulled by a horse and was used to carry people in the old days before we had cars: "This coach is very noisy. Let's try to sit in a coach with fewer people next time." A "coach" can be a person who trains someone or who helps someone get better at doing something: "Benjamin is a coach for his son's baseball team." Or, "Gina now has a life coach who helps her make the right decisions about her work and her personal life." As a verb, "to coach" means to train someone or help someone get better at doing something: "Mr. Dubois has coached many famous athletes, and some of them have competed in the Olympics." |
