Phrase | field |
Text | In this podcast, the word "field" means an outdoor area where a sport is played: "The cheerleaders are practicing on the football field." A "field" is also a large area where plants are grown for food: "That farm has two corn fields and one potato field." A "field" is sometimes an area of study: "Chanterelle wants to study in the field of medicine, but she doesn't know what to specialize in." The phrase "in the field" means in real life and with real people or animals, instead of in a classroom or laboratory: "We've done all the lab tests, and now we need to test our work in the field." As a verb, "to field questions" means to receive many questions from an audience or from reporters: "The president fielded difficult questions from reporters about his new plan." |
