Phrase sides
Text In this podcast, the word "sides" refers to small amounts of food eaten with a main dish, eaten "on the side": "Where are the sides I ordered with our fried chicken?" However, a side can also mean the outer edge of a shape or object: "A square has four sides, a triangle has three, and an octagon has eight." The areas on either side of the human torso above the hips and below the arms are also called "sides": "He had surgery to have his liver removed, and now he has scars on his sides." A side can also be a belief or point of view: "After speaking with him about this issue, I can now see his side." Finally, to say that a person is from "the wrong side of the tracks" means that the person lived in a dangerous or bad neighborhood: "Joe grew up on the wrong side of the tracks; his parents sold drugs and his brother went to jail."
