Word of the Week - 54

SWAP

This week's word is a verb which can be used to mean exchange. When you give somebody something in return for something else you can say that you are swapping something.

When you've finished reading that book do you want to swap with me? This book is really good too.

I swapped addresses with a lovely couple who we met on our honeymoon. (I gave them my address and they gave me theirs - we didn't exchange houses!)

They spent all night in the pub swapping stories about university. (telling each other stories)

Ok students, swap sheets with the people sitting next to you.
