Episode Title Describing Very Large and Small Sizes
Phrase size
Text The word "size," in this podcast, means a measure of how large or small something is: "An apartment of this size should offer more than enough space for a family of four." The phrase "to size (something or someone) up" means to assess or judge something or someone: "Within a few moments of entering the room, Jake had already sized up the situation and decided what to do." Food that is bite-size can be placed in one's mouth without first cutting it with a knife or with one's teeth: "Make sure all the appetizers are bite-size so that guests won't have to cut anything while they're standing with their plates." Finally, the phase "palm-size" means able to fit on one's open hand: "The government agency says that an appropriate serving of meat is palm-size."
