Phrase hood
Text The word "hood," in this podcast, means the large, flat piece of metal at the front of a car that opens to give access to the engine and other mechanical parts: "Do you know how to open the hood and check the oil level in your car?" A "hood" is also a piece of fabric sewn to the neck of one's shirt or jacket that can be lifted up and over one's head, usually to protect one's hair and head from the rain: "I forgot to bring an umbrella, so I had to use my hood when it started raining." Finally, some people use the word "hood" as an informal term for "neighborhood," especially if they are referring to a poor or undesirable area: "How long have you lived in the hood?"
