今週の文法ワード【head】
Today, I’d like to write about the word “head”. Most people know the word “head” as a noun, but we can also use it as a verb.
We can use it as a verb in three ways:
1. to go somewhere. For example:
I’m going to head home now. Is there anything you need from me before I leave?
If you want to go to Brentwood, take the train heading west, not east.
2. to be the leader of something. For example:
I’ve chosen James to head the project, so you will all report to him.
One day, I would like to head my own company. It’s always been my dream.
3. to be in the lead position of something. For example:
My wife and I haven’t decided on a place to go on our vacation yet, but Spain is heading the list right now.
We’re in the middle of an election now. All the votes haven’t been counted yet, but so far, David Miller is heading the race.
With the first meaning of “head”, we can use it about a person or with a kind of public transportation like a train.
With the third meaning, we often use “head” to talk about what’s at the top of a list.
