| Phrase | classic |
| Text | The word "classic," in this podcast, means an older thing that is widely admired and recognized as having value even when compared with more modern items: "This old computer is a classic. How can you even think about throwing it away?" When talking about literature, "the classics" are books that are greatly admired within a particular culture: "The American classics include The Grapes of Wrath, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Atlas Shrugged, To Kill a Mockingbird, and many other novels." Finally, the word "classic" can also mean a perfect, exact, or ideal example of something: "She made a classic mistake in the job interview by focusing on how the job would benefit her rather than how she could contribute to the company." |
