Episode Title Traveling to a Remote Island
Phrase remote
Text The word "remote," in this podcast, means very far away, not near cities, civilization, or other people: "On a bad day, Brett wishes he could run away to a remote cabin where no one could find him." The phrase "to work remotely" means to telecommute, or to work from home, not at the main office: "All our employees are allowed to work remotely one or two days per week." A "remote" is a remote control, or a small, wireless device with many buttons used to control a TV, DVD player, stereo, or other electronic device or machine: "The volume button on the remote isn't working anymore. Maybe it needs new batteries." Finally, a "remote possibility" is something that is very unlikely to happen: "Since I don't meet most of the qualifications, getting that job seems like a remote possibility."
