Phrase | solid |
Text | In this podcast, the word "solid" means to be strongly built and made of strong materials: "This children's chair isn't solid enough for an adult to sit on it." The word "solid" also identifies objects that are not liquids or gasses (vapor): "Water becomes solid at 32º Fahrenheit." Babies are fed "solid foods" when they're able to chew and aren't limited to only liquids and purees: "Danny's favorite solid foods are cheddar cheese, ham, and blueberries." The word "solid" sometimes means reliable or true: "Good journalists don't print news stories until they're sure they're based on solid facts." Finally, the word "solid" can mean without interruption: "They've been working for 36 hours solid with absolutely no sleep." |
