عبارت انگلیسی
bullet
معنی و توضیح
In this podcast, the word “bullet” means a small mark, usually a round circle, used at the beginning of each item in a list, especially in a report: “Instead of listing all those things in a paragraph separated by commas, try putting them in a list with bullets to make it easier for people to read.” When talking about guns, a “bullet” is a small piece of metal that is shot from a gun to hurt or kill a person or animal: “The hunter shot three bullets, but he didn’t hit any of the geese.” Finally, the phrase “to bite the bullet” means to do something that is dangerous, difficult, or unpleasant, especially if one has been avoiding it for a period of time: “They’ve been delaying cleaning out the garage for years, but now it’s time to bite the bullet and just do it.” 3 these materials on another website or distributing them in any way is prohibited.

This episode is called “Formatting Text.” It’s a dialogue between Chad and Pamela that is going to be using a lot of vocabulary that you might need when talking about preparing a formal document on a word processing program such as Microsoft Word. Let’s get started.
Chad: Okay, this report is finally finished.
Pamela: Oh, not quite. I’m still working on the formatting.
Chad: We used the standard formatting for this type of report. I don’t think we should play around with the text.
Pamela: Standard is boring. I want our report to be special.
