Phrase | To switch |
Text | The phrase, "to switch," in this podcast means to change from using one company's services to using the services of a different company: "Mr. Kim switched phone companies just last month and has already saved $20." To switch can also mean to change or exchange something very suddenly: "The twins quickly switched name tags to confuse their teacher." A switch can also be a small device used to turn something on and off, most commonly lights and electronics: "Could you turn on the light? The switch is by the door." Or: "I can't find the switch to turn on this radio." A switch can also be a thin stick used to hit people or animals as a punishment: "In the story, when the boy behaved badly, his father hit him with a switch." |
