Text The word "shift," in this podcast, means a period of time when one works: "Huang worked six shifts last week." A "shift" can also be a change in the way people think: "Many people note a shift in their outlook and priorities once they become parents." On a computer keyboard, the "shift" key is held down to make another key produce a capital letter or a special symbol: "To type a dollar sign, hold down 'shift' and press '4'." A "shift" can be very simple dress: "You can't wear that shift to the party. It isn't fancy enough."
