Episode Title | Describing Accuracy and Inaccuracy |
Phrase | forgiving |
Text | The term "forgiving," in this podcast, means tolerant of mistakes, or for something to still function even if one is not exact or precise: "These power tools are very forgiving and work well even if you're using them for the first time." "To forgive" means to stop being angry or feeling hateful toward someone who made a mistake or did something bad: "Will you ever be able to forgive your brother for stealing your girlfriend?" "To forgive" can also mean to cancel a debt, and for someone who owes you money or something else to no longer need to pay it back: "The government has a program that forgives student college loans if a university graduate works in low-income areas for three years." |
