Phrase | sighting |
Text | In this podcast, the word "sighting" means an instance where someone or something is seen, especially if it is very rare: "Police are asking local residents to call with any sightings of the murder suspect." Or, "Do you believe these stories about people who are reporting sightings of UFOs?" The phrase "to see the sights" means to visit the popular tourist destinations in an area: "How many days will we need to see the sights in Chicago?" Buying something "sight unseen" means buying it without seeing it first: "Did you really buy the apartment sight unseen from across the country?" Finally, the phrase "to not let (someone) out of one's sight" means to be very careful not to lose someone: "If you take our daughter downtown, don't let her out of your sight!" |
