Phrase | drawing |
Text | The word "drawing," in this podcast, is used as a noun to mean the choosing of a winner in a game of luck, like the lottery: "I'm sure I'm going to win the big prize in tomorrow's drawing." It can also be used as a verb, "to draw," to mean to pick: "He was hoping to draw the number 8, but he got the number 6 instead." The most common use of the word "drawing," though, is to mean a picture that you someone makes: "Her drawings are always colorful." And, "to draw," in this case, means to make a picture: "It's difficult to draw good pictures of people because their eyes and mouth move often and quickly." |
