character
معنی و توضیح
In this podcast, the word “character” means personality or distinctive characteristics or traits that make one different from other people: “This room has a lot of character!” A “character” is also one person in a story: “Talented actors enjoy playing many different types of characters.” If an actor is “in character,” he or she is acting well, without reverting to his or her own reactions: “It must be so hard to stay in character when the other actors do something funny!” When talking about a keyboard or typing, a “character” is one letter or symbol: “This form only allows us to type in 400 characters.” Finally, if something is “character- building,” it is an experience that teaches people to be stronger or to develop good ethics or resilience: “Volunteering at the homeless shelter was a good character-building experience for Miko.” 3 these materials on another website or distributing them in any way is prohibited. www.easytalk.ir English as a Second Language Podcast www.eslpod.com ESL Podcast 935 – Showing Signs of Age
