عبارت انگلیسی
arrest
معنی و توضیح
The phrase “cardiac arrest,” in this podcast, means a heart attack, when one’s heart stops beating and cannot move blood through the body: “Orlando went into cardiac arrest, but fortunately, the ambulance was able to take him to the hospital very quickly and the doctors saved him.” The verb “to arrest” normally means to put someone in jail: “Shelby was arrested for stealing a car.” The phrase “house arrest” describes a punishment where someone would normally be kept in jail, but the government has agreed to allow the person to stay inside his or her home instead: “Adolfo was under house arrest for three years, but it was better than being in prison.” Finally, if something is “arresting” it is very interesting and unusual: “The architect presented an arresting design.”
