Phrase | detail |
Text | In this podcast, the word "detail" means a small fact, or a single, small piece of information about something: "When redecorating their home, they paid attention to all the details, including paint colors, textures, fabrics, and more." The phrase "down to the last detail" means completely, without leaving anything out: "The instructions were extremely clear, down to the last detail." The phrase "to have an eye for detail" means having the ability or talent for paying attention to even the smallest things: "Her success as an artist is due to her having an eye for detail." Finally, in the military or in a police force, a "detail" is a specific assignment or the group that one works with: "How long have you been working on the security detail?" |
