Phrase touch
Text In this podcast, a "touch-screen" is a flat panel on an electronic device that can sense where one touches it, allowing the user to select things on the screen with one's finger: "Please tap the map on the touch-screen to indicate which state you're in." The phrase "in touch" means communicating with another person: "While they were physically apart, they stayed in touch with letters, emails, and phone calls." The phrase "to lose touch" means to stop being aware of something, or to not have current, accurate information about something: "The politician promised to help the middle class, but after he won the election, he seemed to lose touch with their concerns." Finally, the phrase "to put the finishing touches on (something)" means to do the final steps or to address the last details: "We just need to put the finishing touches around the windows and then we'll be done painting."
