| Phrase | fan |
| Text | The word "fan," in this podcast, means someone who likes an athlete, musician, actor, type of sport, or type of music very much and regularly participates in related activities: "Craig is a huge fan of the band, so we bought him concert tickets as a birthday present." The word "fan" also refers to a machine that blows air to help people feel cooler: "We don't have air conditioning, but this fan might help you feel better." A "fan" can also be a piece of stiff paper that is held in one's hand and moved back and forth to make the air move: "The children folded paper into a fan and used it to blow the hot air away from their skin." Finally, when talking about literature, "fan fiction" is stories that fans write, using the characters and settings from their favorite books. |
