Cook food on a grill

To cook food over strong heat, usually on metal bars above a fire or heat source.

사용 패턴: to grill [food] (for [time])
자주 하는 실수:
Learners sometimes confuse "grill" with "fry" or "bake". "Grill" means cooking with strong direct heat, usually from below (or from above in an oven), not in a pan full of oil (fry) and not with gentle all‑around heat in an oven (bake).
유의어
barbecue (Often suggests outdoor cooking with smoke and a social event.) | broil (Mainly American English for cooking with strong top heat in an oven.)
반의어
boil (Means to cook food in hot water instead of over direct dry heat.)

barbecue (Often refers specifically to an outdoor grill and the social event around it.)
반의어
oven (An enclosed cooker that uses surrounding heat rather than open direct heat from below.)

Casual restaurant serving grilled food

A simple, not very expensive restaurant that sells meat and other food cooked on a grill.

A hard cover with bars or many holes that protects or decorates the front of something, like a car or a vent.

사용 패턴: the [car/vent/speaker] grill

유의어

반의어
solid panel (A flat, unbroken surface without openings, the opposite of a framework with holes or bars.)
