Phrase | to trash |
Text | In this podcast, the verb "to trash" means to destroy, break, or ruin something, or to make something very dirty and disorganized by not caring for it: "How is it possible for children to trash a room so quickly? They were in there for only a few minutes, but there are toys and clothes all over the floor." The verb "to trash" also means to say very bad things about another person: "The girls stayed up all night, laughing as they trashed the other students at school." The rude phrases "trailer trash" and "white trash" are used to talk about people who live in trailer parks (mobile homes) with little money and little education: "She grew up being called white trash, but she studied hard, got a good job, and made a better life for herself." |
