| Phrase | still |
| Text | In this podcast, the word "still" means motionless or without moving: "A wildlife photographer has to learn to hold perfectly still, because any movement might scare the animals away." The word "still" can also mean calm or quiet: "The office was so still at night that Jake was able to get a lot of work done without any interruptions." The word "still" also means up to a point in time and continuing: "Are you still reading that book? Didn't you start it last year?" Or, "Are you still scared of the dark?" The word "still" can also mean despite and can be used for contrast: "It wasn't very sunny, but we still got sunburned." Sometimes the word "still" is used for emphasis, almost like the word "even": "The situation became still more serious when the police officers arrived." |
