뜻
To make a machine or device stop working.
문화적 배경
Turning off lights is a common way to teach children responsibility. In public transport, 'turning off' (or silencing) phones is a strict social rule. Energy saving is a major cultural value; turning off devices is expected. People often say 'switch off' instead of 'turn off' for lights.
Separable Verb
Remember that if you use 'it' or 'them', they must go in the middle!
Don't overgeneralize
You can't 'turn off' a person (unless you mean you lost interest in them).
