Text | The word "yard," in this podcast, means an outdoor area next to a home, owned by and belonging to the home owner: "They made the southwest corner of their yard into a small vegetable garden." Sometimes a "yard" is an enclosed area, or an area surrounded by a fence: "The children play in the school yard for a half-hour each day after lunch." A "yard" is also a unit of measurement equal to three feet or 0.91 meters: "How many yards of fabric will you need to buy to make the curtains?" Finally, a "yard sale" is a like a garage sale, an event where people sell used items that they no longer need in front of their home or on the sidewalk: "Look at this great table we picked up at a yard sale this morning!" |
