Phrase away from
Text In this podcast, the phrase "away from" means not in a particular place because one has gone somewhere else temporarily: "A security guard should never be away from his post." The phrase "far and away" is used to provide emphasis and means extremely, or more than anything else: "That was far and away the best meal I've had in Austin." The phrase "right away" and "straight away" mean immediately, without any delay: "Please take these papers to Harold right away." Finally, when talking about sports, an "away" game is the opposite of a home game, because an away game is played on the competitors' field: "It's harder to win away games, because we can't hear our fans cheering."
