Phrase junior
Text The word "junior," in this podcast, means younger and with less experience than other people: "Avery is only a junior analyst right now, but he hopes to be a manager within five years and a senior vice-president within seven years." The phrase "to be (someone's) junior" means to be younger than another person: "His sister is three years his junior." A "junior" is also a high school or college student in the third year of study in a four-year program: "Most of Caroline's friends are juniors, but she is also friends with a few sophomores and seniors." Finally, sometimes the word "junior," abbreviated "Jr.," is added to the end of a boy's name when he has the same name as his father: "I can't believe Doran Cougherty named his son Doran Cougherty, Jr."
