Phrase | label |
Text | In this podcast, the word "label" means a piece of paper with words and images that is permanently attached to the front or side of a container, used to indicate what is in the package and how to use it: "Read the entire label carefully before taking this medication." Or, "The design of the label has the power to influence consumers' buying decisions." A "label" can also be a descriptive phrase used for an entire group of people, often without justification: "It isn't fair to assume that all men deserve a 'sexist' label." Finally, when talking about clothing, a "designer label" refers to expensive clothes created by a popular maker: "These designer-label jeans cost almost as much as my monthly rent!" |
