Text The word "palm," in this podcast, means the inside part of one's hand, not including one's fingers: "They gave each other a 'high-five,' hitting their palms against each other." The phrase "to read (someone's) palm" means to look at someone's palm and know what is going to happen in the future: "A woman read his palm and said that he would live until he was 90 years old." The phrase "to have (someone) in the palm of (one's) hand" means to be able to control someone or make him or her do what one wants: "That boy is completely in love with you! You have him in the palm of your hand."
