Podcast 1 — Introduction & meaning

Narrator: Today's word is "Pulling" — noun or verb form, pronounced /ˈpʊlɪŋ/, with the stress on "pull".

Narrator: Pulling is the act of exerting force to draw something towards oneself or in a particular direction.

Narrator: In plain English, pulling is when you use your strength to bring something closer — like pulling a door open or pulling a rope.

Narrator: It comes from the Old English pullian, meaning to pluck or pull, and is related to similar Germanic words meaning to draw.

Narrator: "Pulling a rope" describes the action of drawing a cord towards you with your hands.

Narrator: It differs from pushing because pulling draws something towards you, whereas pushing moves it away.

Narrator: "Pulling power" is a figurative sense meaning the ability to attract people or attention, as in a star's pulling power at the box office.

Narrator: Physics, sport, engineering, everyday action and entertainment all rely on the word pulling.

Narrator: So remember: pulling means drawing something towards you, from the Old English for pluck.
