trick
معنی و توضیح
The phrase “to do the trick,” in this podcast, means to do what something was meant to do or to be successful: “My car was making a lot of noise, but a quick trip to the mechanic did the trick.” Usually a “trick” is something that someone does to another person to make him or her believe something that isn’t true: “Is it true that the store is giving away computers to the first customer each day, or is that just a sales trick?” Or, “The children played a dirty trick on the teacher by telling him that his car was on fire in the parking lot.” A “trick” can also be an interesting or magical thing that someone does to entertain other people: “Grandpa has a trick where he seems to pull a coin from behind his granddaughter’s ear.” A “trick” can also be a good way to do something: “The trick to studying for this exam is to do all the problems at the end of each chapter.”
