Phrase ceremony
Text The word "ceremony," in this podcast, means a special event that honors a person or a group of people: "What time will the graduation ceremony begin?" The phrase "without ceremony" means very informally, or sometimes without being polite: "The actress surprised everyone, accepting the award without ceremony, simply saying 'thank you.'" The phrase "to not stand on ceremony" means to be informal and not worry about the rules regarding how one should behave and what one should do: "Don't stand on ceremony. Come in, relax, and drink a beer with us!" Finally, the "master of ceremonies," or "MC," is the person who introduces guests or speakers at an event: "The master of ceremonies shared the speaker's biography with the audience."
