| Text | In this podcast, the word "repair" means a fix or modification to make something work again after it has broken: "Who does most of the home repairs in your house?" If something is "in need of repair," it needs to be fixed: "Please make a list of everything that is in need of repair." If something is "beyond repair," it is ruined and cannot be fixed: "After the flooding, the carpet in their basement was beyond repair." The phrase "under repair" means being fixed: "How long has the tunnel been under repair, and when do they expect to finish?" The phrase "in good/bad repair" means to be in good or poor condition: "Why would you consider buying a home in such bad repair?" |
