Text | The phrase "record year," in this podcast, means the year with the highest level or amount of something: "Last year was a record year for accidents in our company, and it's our job to find out why." The phrase "in record time" means very quickly: "Blake finished his work in record time and went home early to watch the game on TV." The phrase "for the record" is used to give emphasis to what one is saying so that other people will pay attention and remember later: "For the record, I think this is a very bad idea." Finally, the phrase "off the record" is used when one is going to say something that should not be repeated, especially in the media: "Off the record, Janice is a strong supporter of the proposed law, but she would never admit it in public." |
