Episode Title | Renting an Apartment |
Phrase | unit |
Text | The word "unit," in this podcast, means one of many apartments in a building: "I know you're on the third floor, but which unit do you live in?" A "unit" can also be a department, or a group of people working together on something: "The police force has a children's unit that takes children out of dangerous family situations." Or, "The hospital is going to build a bigger building for its cancer unit." In a factory, a "unit" is one product that is made: "This factory makes 10,000 units each month." Finally, the phrase "unit price" is the cost per piece of something: "A big box of diapers costs $33, but the unit price is low at just $0.17 per diaper." |
