Phrase brush
Text In this podcast, the word "brush" means a piece of wood or plastic that is held in one's hand and has many small pieces like hairs that are used to clean something or to separate individual pieces of one's hair: "Don't forget to pack your hairbrush and toothbrush." "Brush" can also refer to many plants and small trees: "There was a lot of brush there, so it was difficult to walk on the trail." "The brush-off" is behavior where one is not nice and shows that one is not interested in speaking with or being with another person: "He called to ask her out on a date, but she gave him the brush-off." Finally, the phrase "to brush (something) off" means to move one's hand against something gently to clean small pieces of something else off of it: "After eating, he brushed small pieces of food off his shirt."
