Phrase | collector |
Text | The word "collector," in this podcast, means a person who get and keep things that are rare or valuable: "Book collectors pay a lot of money for old, hard to find books." But collectors aren't just people doing something as a hobby. The word can also be used for organizations that collect things as part of their business or job. For example, art museums are collectors of art; and the Internal Revenue Service, the IRS, is a collector of taxes, or money paid to the government. |
