| Phrase | knot |
| Text | The word "knot," in this podcast, means a very tight section of muscle that is painful and that one is unable to relax: "After rowing his boat all morning, Hank had terrible knots in his shoulders." The word "knot" also refers to how two things are tied together: "They put the Christmas tree in the back of the pickup truck and tied it down with rope, hoping their knots would be strong enough to keep the tree there." Finally, when talking about wood, a "knot" is a dark area where a branch once connected to that part of the tree: "This would be a perfect piece of wood for a table if it didn't have that one knot in the middle." |
