عبارت انگلیسی
stitch
معنی و توضیح
The word “stitch,” in this podcast, means a piece of thread sewn into one’s skin to close a deep cut: “He’s had several broken bones, but he’s never needed to get stitches.” A “stitch” can also be a piece of thread to hold two pieces of fabric together: “Did you do those stitches by hand, or did you use a sewing machine?” “Cross-stitch” is a type of sewing used for decoration or adornment, making designs by sewing the thread in small “x” shapes: “She made a cross-stitch wall hanging for her newborn daughter.” The phrase “in stitches” is old-fashioned, but it describes someone who is laughing uncontrollably and cannot stop: “His jokes were so funny that we were all in stitches for hours.”

I arrive in the emergency room. I had been at a party earlier in the evening when I accidentally cut my finger. My finger wasn’t severed, but it did have a very deep cut and I thought I might need stitches. I check in at the admissions desk and I’m told to take a seat and wait.
