Phrase lane
Text The word "lane," in this podcast, means a narrow (small and long) section in a grocery store where shoppers form a line to wait for a cashier to help them make their purchases: "The grocery store was busy yesterday evening and there were at least five people waiting in each lane." A "lane" can also be a small road, usually in the countryside: "He lives is the lane behind that big farm." On a larger road, a "lane" is marked by white or yellow lines and is used to keep cars in a straight line: "In the U.S., the slow lane is on the right and the passing lane is on the left." A "lane" is also a marked section in a swimming pool or on a racetrack used to keep competitors out of each other's way: "Which lane is your brother running in?"
