Text | In this podcast, the verb "to notice" means to pay attention to something, or to see or hear something and become aware of it: "Did you notice that Chanterelle was crying? I wonder what happened." The phrase "to give (a number) weeks' notice" means to tell one's employer that one is going to stop working there in a number of weeks: "At most companies, employees are asked to give two weeks' notice before they quit."
