| Text | In this podcast, the word "fence" means a wooden or metal wall around a yard or other area with grass, usually used to keep people or animals on one side, but sometimes just for decoration: "The dog barks loudly, but don't be scared, because he can't get past the fence." The phrase "to sit on the fence" means to be undecided and not be able to form an opinion or make a decision: "Many voters are still sitting on the fence, unable to decide which candidate they want to vote for." Finally, the phrase "to mend fences" means to fix a relationship and become friendly again after an argument: "Over time, the two brothers were able to mend fences and behave like a family again." |
