| Phrase | partner |
| Text | The word "partner," in this podcast, is a broad term for a person with whom one has a romantic relationship, but the two people are not married and do not want to use the term boyfriend/girlfriend: "Randall isn't married, but he and his partner have been living together for more than 18 years." The word "partner" also describes one of two or more people who share ownership of a business or are working together to complete some task: "Harold doesn't have enough money to open his own business, so he is looking for some partners." The word "partner" is also used by cowboys to address each other, especially as "Howdy, partner!" Finally, the phrase "to partner up" means to select another person to work with, especially in school: "I want all of you to partner up for our next class activity." |
