عبارت انگلیسی
company
معنی و توضیح
The word “company,” in this podcast, means the presence of another person, or time spent with others: “If you enjoy her company so much, ask her out on a date!” The phrase “two’s company, three’s a crowd” means that two people would rather be with each other, without anyone else, especially if those people are involved in a romantic relationship: “It’s nice of you to invite me to go out with you and Jake, but two’s a company and three’s a crowd.” The phrase “to be in good company” is used to reassure someone that other people have done the same thing: “Don’t worry about what you said. Famous politicians and celebrities have said much more embarrassing things during interviews, so you’re in good company.” Finally, the word “company” also refers to a business: “Which companies have you applied to?”

This episode is about someone who talk too much, and someone who doesn’t talk enough. Let’s get started.
Marcia: Phew! I thought they’d never leave.
Artem: I enjoyed their company, didn’t you?
Marcia: Jessie is fine, a little reserved and soft-spoken, and on the shy side. Kelly, on the other hand, talked our ear off. No one could get a word in edgewise with her.
