Meaning of 'Has a nice ring' #1 (permalink) Thu Nov 13, 2008 18:51 pm   Meaning of 'Has a nice ring'
 

In Prison Break Season 4 episode 10

While Michael and Sara were waiting for the test results in the hospital, they had a chat as follows:

SARA: I needed to make sure that I would have access to your test results,

so I told the triage nurse that I was your wife.

MICHAEL: (with a grin on his face) Has a nice ring.

My question is what's the meaning of 'Has a nice ring' that Mike said?

Hi Kricha,

If you say: That has a nice ring (about it), you are simply saying that it is pleasant to hear/listen to.
