| Phrase | company |
| Text | The word "company," in this podcast, means the presence of another person, or time spent with others: "If you enjoy her company so much, ask her out on a date!" The phrase "two's company, three's a crowd" means that two people would rather be with each other, without anyone else, especially if those people are involved in a romantic relationship: "It's nice of you to invite me to go out with you and Jake, but two's a company and three's a crowd." The phrase "to be in good company" is used to reassure someone that other people have done the same thing: "Don't worry about what you said. Famous politicians and celebrities have said much more embarrassing things during interviews, so you're in good company." Finally, the word "company" also refers to a business: "Which companies have you applied to?" |
