Text | The word "screen," in this podcast, means the flat, rectangular part of a computer monitor that one looks at, which produces light and has text and images on it: "Her eyes were tired after looking at the computer screen all day." The phrase "the big screen" is used to talk about movies that are seen at the movie theater: "I wanted to see that movie on the big screen, but then we decided to wait and watch it at home on DVD instead." Finally, a "screen" is a large piece of thin metal netting that is put over a window or door to keep out insects: "If we don't want flies in our house, we need to get screens for our windows." |
