| Text | In this podcast, the verb "to recover" means to feel better after an illness or a stressful or worrying situation: "The operation was a success and the doctor said she should recover within four weeks."

"To recover" can also mean to find or to have something returned to you that was lost or stolen: "My car was stolen last week but the police recovered it after only two days." Or, "She lost her luggage on the train but recovered it after she reported it missing." |
