Phrase | partner |
Text | In this podcast, the word "partner" means one half of a pair, or one person in a group of two people who are working on something together: "Who is your partner for the next chemistry lab session?" A "partner" can also be a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, or wife, and is often used when one doesn't know whether someone is married: "Please bring your partner to the office party." In business, a "partner" is someone who shares the ownership of a business: "Noah didn't have enough money to start a software company on his own, so he had to look for a partner." A "silent partner" is someone who owns part of a business and has put money into it, but isn't actively involved in running the business: "This business is owned by the CEO and two silent partners." |
