I'm still on holiday so I'm away from my recording studio and just making a quick podcast using my mobile phone while people watching. This week, I'm going to talk about the verb 'to turn' and use it in the context of the people I can see in a shopping centre by the sea.Here are examples of the uses of this verb:Turned on the radio Turn around and walk awayTurn something into something elseTurn away and look somewhere elseTurn to somebody to speak to themShe stopped and turned. Turn your back on somebodyTurn red with anger, turn blue with cold, turn green with envy,Turn a page in a bookIt’s your turn, wait your turn, take turns.
