| Phrase | cross |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "cross" refers to two straight pieces of wood that are connected together at a right (90º) angle, with the longer piece in a vertical position and the shorter piece in a horizontal position (?): "Camilo knelt before the cross to pray." The verb "to cross" means to go across something from one side to the other: "How will we cross the river if the bridge is closed for construction?" The phrase "to cross (something) out" means to draw a line through text to show that it should be deleted in the next version: "Why did you cross out this section? I thought that was the best part of the story." Finally, if someone is "cross," it means that he or she is in a bad mood and is angry or frustrated: "Wynona was really cross when she found out she didn't get the job." |
