Phrase token
Text In this podcast, the word "token" means a sign or symbol of something, especially of the way someone feels: "Please accept this book as a token of our appreciation for you coming here and speaking tonight." Or, "I think we should buy her some flowers as a token of our gratitude." A "token" is also a small, round piece of metal like a coin that is used to make a machine work: "Where can I buy a token for the metro?" Or, "Do the public phones accept coins or tokens?" Finally, the phrase "by the same token" means in the same way or for the same reason: "He doesn't like cake, but by the same token he doesn't really like any desserts."
