Episode Title | Ordering at a Sandwich Shop |
Phrase | double |
Text | The word "double," in this podcast, means with 200% of something, or twice as much as normal: "Vladimir ordered a mocha with a double shot of espresso." The word "double" can also be used to talk about something that has two identical or similar parts: "Walk through the double doors into the main lobby." A "double feature" happens at the movie theater when one can see two movies, one after another, by purchasing only one ticket: "Do you want to go see the double feature with me on Tuesday?" Finally, the phrase "double digits" is used to talk about any number from 10 to 99: "The company is growing very quickly and now its number of employees is in the double digits." |
