Phrase | toast |
Text | In this podcast, the word "toast" means words said to honor a person or thing while raising an alcoholic drink in one's hand before drinking: "During the rehearsal dinner, everyone made a toast to the bride and groom." When talking about food, "toast" is a piece of bed that has been lightly cooked on both sides to make it crunchy: "Would you like butter, honey, or jam on your toast?" The informal phrase "to be toast" means to be in trouble or to be punished for one's actions: "If Mom and Dad find out what you've done, you'll be toast!" Finally, if something is "toasty" it is pleasantly warm, cozy, and comfortable: "After playing outside in the snow, they sat with their feet by the fire until their toes were toasty again." |
