put away

10/7/2020

We use [put something away] in a couple of  contexts:

To save money for future use:

  • I try to put away some money every week towards my holiday.
  • If we put a little away each week, we should have a sufficient fund should things go wrong.

Consume food or drink in large quantities:
  • Did you see how much food he put away?

However, if we [put someone away] it means to confine someone in a prison or psychiatric hospital. It may be necessary but not exactly pleasant. Or maybe yes:

  • Sometimes I feel you’ve put me away as you rarely visit me anymore. [humorous]
  • After the court case, he was put away for several years. [serious]
Our online courses and modules are designed with you in mind:

  • flexible: you have busy lives, so our courses fit your schedule
  • practical: we use everyday examples and situations to help you understand
  • practice: there is only one way to improve; mistakes are there to help us learn
  • support: a personal mentor works with you
