| Phrase | sugar |
| Text | The word "sugar," in this podcast, means a sweet substance found in foods that provides energy: "Do you want sugar and cream with your coffee?" Or: "On Halloween night, the children ate too much sugar and then felt sick." The word "sugar" is sometimes used as a term of endearment for a loved one: "Hey, sugar, don't forget to call me tonight." A "sugar daddy" is an older man who gives a younger woman a lot of money and presents in exchange for a sexual relationship: "We thought Chelsea viewed Jake as a sugar daddy, but now she is talking about marrying him." Finally, if something is "sugar-coated," it is being made to seem better than it really is: "Don't give me the sugar-coated version of my medical diagnosis. Just tell me the truth." |
