Phrase (one's) treat
Text In this podcast, the phrase "(one's) treat" means that one will pay for something as a small gift for another person: "He took me to the zoo as his treat, paying for my ticket." Normally a "treat" is something nice and special that one does to make another person happy: "When I was younger, going to a restaurant was always a special treat." A "treat" is also something that tastes very good and is not eaten regularly: "It isn't a good idea to eat chocolate every day, but it's okay to have it as a treat every once in a while." Finally, on Halloween, children say "trick or treat" to ask for candy from their neighbors (see ESL Podcast 73).
