Phrase | fit |
Text | The verb "to fit," in this podcast, means to be the right size for one's body: "After she had her baby, none of her clothes fit correctly." As a noun, a "fit" can be a match between two things, or the way that two things work well together: "His job isn't a good fit for him, so he has decided to leave the company." A "fit" is also a short period of time when one cannot control what one says or does, often because one is very angry: "She had a fit when she came home to such a messy house." A "fit of laughter" is uncontrollable laughing that happens when something is very funny: "The girls had a fit of laughter and had to leave the classroom." Finally, the word "fit" can also mean to be in good physical health: "He's very fit since he runs at least five miles every day." |
