| Phrase | free for all |
| Text | In this podcast, the phrase "free for all" means a situation where everyone is speaking at the same time in an unorganized way: "Teachers ask students to raise their hands so that the classroom doesn't become a free for all." A "free for all" can also be a fight that doesn't have any rules and that involves many people: "Two boys started fighting at school today, but it quickly became a free for all involving almost all of the students in the classroom." The phrase "for free" means without a price or charge: "The company gives away pens and magnets for free." Finally, the phrase "free and clear" means without any consequences or without any responsibilities: "Even though witnesses had seen him steal the stereo, he walked away free and clear." |
