| Phrase | left behind |
| Text | In this podcast, the phrase "left behind" means not taken with the rest of a group of people, often because one was too slow or arrived late: "Drive faster or we'll be left behind by the other cars." The phrase "behind bars" means in jail or prison: "He spent 20 years behind bars as punishment for his crime." The phrase "behind the times" means old-fashioned and not modern: "Quentin is a nice guy, but his sense of fashion is behind the times." Finally, the phrase "behind (someone's) back" describes doing something in a secretive way so that he or she does not know about it: "It's mean to say things like that behind Reya's back." |
