| Phrase | records |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "records" means written information about one person or organization, especially documenting changes over time: "Are students allowed to view the records that the school is keeping about them?" The word "record" also means the best or worst, the longest or shortest, or some other extreme of the level that has been achieved: "Hannah ran the marathon in 3:48, a personal record." Or, "Who holds the world record for the long jump?" When talking about music, a "record" is a flat, round piece of plastic that has raised circular lines that can produce sound in a record player: "Do you prefer to listen to records or CDs?" Finally, the phrase "for the record" provides emphasis and means that another person should remember what one was saying: "Yes, I was arrested, but for the police never charged me with a crime." |
