| Phrase | cut |
| Text | The phrase "a rough cut," in this podcast, means a first draft of video editing, enough to present a basic idea of what the video will be like, but without careful transitions or polish: "This is just a rough cut to see what everything looks like on the screen." Also in this podcast, the phrase "to cut out" means to repeatedly stop or disappear for short periods of time: "What did you say? The phone cut out for a moment." The phrase "to cut back" means to reduce, or to begin to use less of something: "If we cut back on eating out, we should be able to save some money to buy a new car." Finally, the old-fashioned phrase "to cut a rug" means to dance: "Ooh, that's one of my favorite old songs. Do you want to cut a rug with me?" |
