Episode Title Reading an Obituary
Phrase personally
Text The word "personally," in this podcast, means in person, having met someone directly: "It's better to end a relationship personally, not through a text message or an email." The word "personally" can also mean in one's opinion: "Personally, I prefer spending the weekend at the beach instead of the mountains." Sometimes the word "personally" is used to talk about something that one has done by oneself, without help from others: "He's too busy to sign those letters personally, so he asked his secretary to do it for him." Finally, the phrase "to take (something) personally" means to become upset or offended by what someone says, because one believes it was said about oneself: "If Hannah arrives at your party a little late, don't take it personally. She's late for everything."
