| Text | The word "manual," in this podcast, means a small book that tells one how to do or use something: "According to the manual, this flashing yellow light means that we need to replace the batteries in the camera." The phrase "manual labor" or "manual work" means physical work that is performed with one's body or hands: "People who perform manual labor need to eat more than people who work in front of a computer all day." Something that is "manual" can also be something that is done without using electricity or machines: "Have you ever driven a car with manual steering?" Finally, doing something "manually" can mean doing something without automation or without the help of a computer: "Did you make those calculations manually, or did you use a computer program?" |
