Phrase | interpretation |
Text | The word "interpretation," in this podcast, means the way that something is understood or explained by one person: "Each newspaper seems to have a different interpretation of what the president said at the meeting." The word "interpretation" is also used to talk about how an actor or actress acts out a role in a play or movie, or how a play is produced: "I didn't really like his interpretation of the main character." Or, "There's a very modern interpretation of Romeo and Juliet at the Globe Theater this month." Another meaning of "interpretation" is the way that one translates spoken words from one language into another: "Who will provide interpretation services at the conference?" Finally, the phrase "to interpret (something) as (something)" means to believe that something has a specific meaning: "We interpreted her silence as anger." |
