| Episode Title | Designing a Building |
| Phrase | permit |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "permit" means official permission to do something, especially to create, modify, or destroy a building: "People who live in historic homes have to get a permit to make almost any modification, even if they're just changing a door or window." A "driver's permit" is a type of driver's license that allows one to drive as long as an older, more experienced person is in the car, usually for one year while one learns to drive and prepares to take the test to get a license: "Karla's son just got his driver's permit, and now she's worried about teaching him how to drive." Finally, a "work permit" is a document that allows one to work in a foreign country: "Diana has a visa, but without a work permit, she can't earn money while living here." |
