Idiom....So, what
is idiom?
Oke, I would tell about idiom. Based on the Oxford Learner’s Pocket
Dictionary (3th) edition, idiom is a group of words with a meaning that is
different from the meaning of all the individual words.
For examples: 1. Pull
your socks up = improve your behavior
2. Put your coat = change your mind
about sth
Oke,. Now, I would
like to share some idioms. Actually I got it when I listened to Swaragama
FM, the program is Think English Think Easy on Monday at
8am.
1. I am totally at the
sea = don’t know what to do, confused, bingung harus ngapain
2. Carrying a torch =
memberi harapan-harapan (cinta)
3. Speak the same
language = selalu seia-sekata
4. Turn the coat =
berubah pikiran
5. Taken a shape =
sudah mendarah daging, sudah dalam
6. Catch sb a red
handed = tertangkap basah
7. stroke in a wrong
way = membuat sangat marah
8. Have a word = perlu
berbicara
9. Dropped crocodile’s
tear = meneteskan air mata buaya
10. run a mile = pergi
menjauh
11. The act of God =
kehendak Tuhan
12. Kick the bucket =
bunuh diri
13. Let the cat out of
the bag = biarkan rahasianya terbongkar
Now, I have a story
related to the idioms above, let’s enjoy the story :D
Frans; a friend of mine. We knew one another in one of
the church’s activity. Yet, the fact was he had been having a girlfriend. As
the time went by, it seemed that both of us were carrying a torch. That was our
fault. Yes, our fault. Then, I realized that I have to run a mile from him
because it seemed that I was the third person for their relation. I was totally
at the sea. He always said that all of that was the act of God, but still, I
felt so sorry. One day, his girlfriend was catch me a red handed. I was so
sorry, I was so guilty, and moreover she was my friends. Oh God!! It made her
stroke in a wrong way. Finally, their relationship was ended by both of them.
Still, I felt so
sorry. Yet, I turned the coat on him. And now, please, do not drop your
crocodile’s tears anymore. I need to have a word with him, a need have a word
with his ex-girlfriend too.
That is really my imagination story :D
