Some English expressions have something to do with clothes. Have you noticed them? Let’s see some now together!
People wear pants to cover their bodies. When somebody is nervous, we can say he has ants in his pants. In every family, one person always takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say she wears the pants in the family. Pants usually have pockets to hold things. If one spends his money quickly, we may say he burns a hole in his pocket. Please don’t do like this!
If a person can save his money and not spend too much, he may be rich in the future. If a person works hard day and night, he may be successful sooner or later. We should take our hats off to them.
Mr. Brad is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie, and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people think he is too cool and strick. But we know that he wear his heart on his sleeve. He shows his feelings openly to everyone. So we can’t judge a man just by his looks. Then you may know what we can do.
