Phrase | fine |
Text | In this podcast, the word "fine" means an amount of money that is paid as a punishment for having done something wrong or against the law: "How much is the fine for throwing garbage in the street?" The word "fine" also means good or very well, especially when asking about how someone is doing: "How are you today?" "Fine thanks." The word "fine" can mean very good quality. For example, we talk about fine wines, fine art, and fine dining. "Fine" can also mean okay and it's used to show that something is acceptable: "Yes, that's fine, I'll come to your office at 3:00 to get the papers." We also use the word "fine" to talk about things that are very thin or narrow: "The baby has very fine hair." |
