| Episode Title | Buying Meat from a Butcher |
| Phrase | whole |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "whole" means entire, referring to the intact animal, with all bones, meat, and possibly organs, but probably without the fur or feathers: "A whole deer provides too much meat for a single person, so Paul shared the meat with his friends and neighbors." When talking about music, a "whole note" is held for an entire measure: "In the 4/4 time measure, a whole note is equal to three quarter notes." When talking about food, "whole grains" are grains that are complete and have not had a part removed: "Brown breads made with whole grains are healthier and tastier than white breads made from white flour." Finally, when talking about math, a "whole number" is an integer, or a number that is not a fraction or decimal: "The children are learning how to multiple and divide whole numbers, but they haven't yet started working with fractions." |
