Undecided audio micro-course (transcript)
Podcast 1 — Introduction & meaning
Narrator: Welcome. Today's word is undecided — an adjective, pronounced un-di-SY-did, with the IPA /ˌʌn.dɪˈsaɪ.dɪd/.
Narrator: Undecided means not having made a choice yet — still thinking, still weighing options, not yet settled on a decision.
Narrator: In plain English, if you're undecided, you simply haven't made up your mind — you're caught between two or more choices.
Narrator: It's built from 'un', meaning not, and 'decided', from Latin decidere — to cut off or settle. So undecided literally means 'not settled'.
Narrator: A match can also be undecided, meaning it has no clear winner yet — the result is still open and unresolved.
Narrator: Over time it stretched from people to outcomes — an undecided voter, an undecided game, an undecided future all left hanging.
Narrator: Its register is neutral and everyday, fitting easily into casual chat, the news, and polite, thoughtful conversation alike.
Narrator: Remember it this way: undecided means the mind is still open. No choice made yet, the matter still waiting to be settled.

Podcast 2 — In conversation
Speaker A: So, have you booked the holiday yet? Greece or Italy — which is it going to be?
Speaker B: Honestly, I'm still completely undecided. I keep switching between the two every single day.
Speaker A: Undecided there means you haven't made up your mind — you're stuck between the choices.
Speaker B: Exactly. And I said 'the election has lots of undecided voters', meaning people who haven't chosen a side.
Speaker A: Quick tip — undecided describes the person or the outcome. 'The match is undecided' means there's no winner yet.
Speaker B: Right. Just don't confuse undecided with 'indecisive' — indecisive is a habit of never deciding; undecided is just not deciding yet.
Speaker A: Is 'unsure' a synonym?
Speaker B: Close. Unsure is about doubt or confidence; undecided is specifically about not having picked between options.
Speaker A: Helpful. So I'll say I'm undecided about dinner, meaning I haven't chosen yet.
Speaker B: Perfect use — mind still open, no choice made.
Podcast 3 — Prompt engineering
Speaker B: Today we'll use the word undecided, meaning no choice made yet, to prompt an AI for pending states, drafts, and 'choose later' flows.
Speaker A: Useful — apps often hold items before a decision, so an undecided theme fits drafts, pending statuses, and review queues nicely.
Speaker B: Let's start with a task board.
Prompt: Build a task board with three columns, to do, done, and undecided, let the user drag any task into the undecided column when they are not sure yet, and show a count of undecided tasks at the top.
Speaker B: The word undecided gives the AI a clear 'not chosen yet' state, so it builds a proper holding place instead of forcing a choice.
Speaker A: Useful. What about a poll?
Prompt: Create a simple poll where each person votes yes, no, or undecided, show the results as three bars, and remind anyone still marked undecided to come back and make a final choice.
Speaker B: Now the database — keep names plain.
Prompt: Design a database schema for a decisions app, store each item with a status of decided or undecided and the chosen option, and index the status so all undecided items load together quickly.
Speaker A: Clear. Could one prompt build the whole tool?
Prompt: Build a simple shortlist app where the user marks each option as kept, rejected, or undecided, see the undecided ones in their own list, and gently nudge them to finish deciding.
Speaker B: For a form, lean on the open state.
Prompt: Add an undecided option to every required choice in this form, let the user save and submit while still undecided, and flag any undecided answer clearly so they can return to it later.
Speaker A: One more — a default?
Prompt: Make new survey answers default to undecided, only count a response as final once the user changes it from undecided, and show how many people are still undecided in the summary.
Speaker B: See the pattern: the word undecided names a clean 'not chosen yet' state, steering the AI toward drafts and pending flows. Clear and memorable.
Speaker A: Love it. Undecided means no choice made yet — I'll keep it for pending statuses, drafts, and choose-later prompts.
