Something between a word and a phrase. In the increasingly action-driven (rather than dictionary-led) lexicon that is modern English (aka World), there is a category of items that are neither a (single) word, nor a (full) phrase.
"I'll go to the bank - but taking my cheques, this time," said David. "That's joined-up thinking."

Food cooked in a micro-wave oven, but sold for profit in, for example, a pub. Particularly applicable where the menu puffs the food - 'scrumptious' 'lip-smacking', etc. Contrasts with 'home-made', which at least implies that the food was cooked from basic ingredients.

But this year's tax return will be simple. "Box A - write your income from all sources for 2009-10; Box B, the amount - exactly the same as in Box A - for which your cheque to HM Revenue and Customs is attached. Please include, also, a pound of flesh."
