Phrase worn
Text In this podcast, the word "worn" means used, damaged, old, and too thin: "Almost all your clothes look worn. It's time to go shopping for some new outfits!" Or, "This old rug is worn in the middle where everyone has been walking on it for years and years." "Worn" is also the past participle of the verb "to wear": "The museum has many of the clothes that were worn by Princess Diana and other famous people." Something that is "time-worn" is old and has been used a lot: "This old building is time-worn, but beautiful." The phrase "well-worn" has the same meaning: "Even though the seats on this train are well-worn, they are surprisingly comfortable." Finally, the phrase "worn out" means very tired: "Jorge is always worn out by the end of the week."
