| Phrase | neat |
| Text | The word "neat," in this podcast, refers to an alcoholic drink that is purely one type of beverage, without being mixed with water, ice, juice, or other types of alcohol: "Drinking that tequila neat made my throat burn." The word "neat" also means tidy, cleaned up, put away, and organized: "Why can't the kids keep their bedroom neat?" A "neat freak" is a person who is obsessed with keeping things clean and organized: "Mary is a neat freak. She stayed up until 2:00 a.m. cleaning and organizing the refrigerator!" The word "neat" can be used to mean cool or interesting: "Oh, that stamp collection is really neat!" And sometimes, the word "neat" means clever: "That's a neat idea!" Or, "Hopefully someone will find a neat solution to the problem." |
