Phrase | stall |
Text | The word "stall," in this podcast, means one small area with a toilet, surrounded by metal or wooden walls and a door that closes to give one privacy in a restroom: "Knock on the stall door to find out whether anyone is inside." A "stall" is also one small part of a barn where a horse, cow, pig, or other animal is kept: "Every morning he goes to the horse stalls and makes sure that the animals have enough food and water for the day." As a verb, "to stall" means to procrastinate, or to delay doing something until later: "It was time for the children to go to bed, but they were stalling, asking for a glass of water and a bedtime story so that they wouldn't have to go to sleep so early." |
