So, I left you with four sentences and what the word 'left' means in each case.
Let's see them again.
1. Is there any coffee left?
2. My car is the second one on the left.
3. They left the country last week.
4. He supports a left-wing party.
In the 1st sentence, the word left means remaining or not used / taken. So in this case the person asking the question is wondering if there is any coffee for them to drink.
In the 2nd sentence, the word left is the opposite of right. So here, the car in question is on the left side, not the right side.
In the 3rd sentence, the word left is the past tense of the verb leave. So if we would ask: "When did they leave the country?" the answer would be: "They left the country last week."
And finally, in the 4th sentence, the word left means socialist. Here, it is matched with the word wing and refers to politics. Here the word party means a political group.
Left-wing politics ranges from centre-left to far-left. The term centre-left describes a position within the political mainstream, whereas far-left refers to positions more radical often associated with communism.
I hope you enjoyed this post!
