Phrase | signed |
Text | In this podcast, the word "signed" means with one's signature, or with one's name written in a way that identifies the individual, especially to show acceptance or approval: "This check is valid only if it's signed by the account owner." The phrase "a sure sign" is a very clear, easily understood indicator: "Those dark clouds are a sure sign that it's going to start raining soon." The phrase "sign of the times" refers to something that represents or emphasizes how people live now: "Unfortunately, people looking at their devices during a meal more than they look at their friends and family is a sign of the times." Finally, the phrase "sign of life" is any sound or movement that indicates someone is alive: "The rescuers searched the collapsed building for any signs of life." |
