Phrase | mix |
Text | The word "mix," in this podcast, means a combination of different things or types of things: "There was a mix of men and woman at the meeting." The word "mix" is used often in cooking. The verb "mix" means to combine different "ingredients," or things that can be put together to make a type of food. If you are making a cake, for example, you may "mix eggs and water." The noun "mix" is used to describe something you can buy at the store with some of the ingredients already put together but that isn't already cooked: "Instead of buying all of the ingredients to make cookies, it's easier to just buy the mix." The phrase "to mix it up" is often used to mean to add something new or different to something else, such as music: "I'm tired of dancing to these slow songs. Let's mix it up." Or, "This band mixed it up on their latest CD by adding electric guitar to classical music." |
