September 17th


One of my aims is to learn phrases. Here is website for it:

http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/index.html

These, for the beginning, I chose with no intention behind it. Especially the third one is simply memorable.

Fair and square - Honest and straightforward, especially of business dealings.

Faith will move mountains – Out of the Bible - Faith is immensely powerful.

GOLF - Gentlemen only, ladies forbidden!

Another bite at the cherry

September 16th


Phraseology I find highly important to know. Today it’s:

Jazz isn’t my cup of tea (informal) – I prefer rock music.

Another/Second bite at the cherry – you have you have another chance to try something.

Sit an exam (formal) = take an exam



Vocabulary with word loose:

Loose (adj.) from being controlled or held in a cage, prison, or institution

Break/get loose (=escape)

Turn/let/set something loose (=let something go free)

Loose - [usually before noun] not exact or thoroughly done: a loose translation, a loose interpretation of smth.



I came across the phrase: get loose in one of Kasabian songs. So it's how the whole family appeared.
