Phrase | to plan out |
Text | The phrase "to plan out," in this podcast, means to plan all the details of something and fully prepare for it, or to develop a detailed idea for how something will be: "They're planning out emergency escape routes in case of a fire." The phrase "to plan ahead" means to be prepared by making plans before they are needed, not waiting until the last minute: "People need to plan ahead for retirement and start saving when they are young." The phrase "to stick to the plan" means to do what one has planned, without changing things if the situation changes: "Whatever happens, just stick to the plan!" Finally, "Plan B" describes a second option, or the plan for what one will do if one's first plan fails: "Well, that was a disaster, so what's our Plan B?" |
