Since I fell in love with English, I started to learn new words and new idioms like everyday and I want to put my knowledge here so I wont forget 'em. Anyway, what I put here are everything new; and I just know.
First; clap (v) is an irregular verb. Base form: clap Past simple: clapped/ clapt Past participle: clapped/ clapt Meaning in Indonesia: bertepuk tangan Second; NEW IDIOMS! 'First up, best dressed' First up, best dressed comes from big families; the first child awake wore the best clothes, so if you are first to do something, you are ahead or have an advantage. Similar to the early bird catches the worm. [Let me say for example if we got the first turn of telling a narrative text, in my school--the first tilll the fifth turn will get +5 score!] 'Like to died' This is regional southern Midwest American English, and may extend to other areas in the U.S. South. In the phrase, "like to" means "almost," and "died" is hyperbole, expressing the extreme effect on the speaker. Here's an example: "That job was so hard, I like to died". [Well, in my real live it will be: "This condition that I have no money was so frustating, I like to died"] Yay! New word and idioms for today; thankyou so much for those kind websites there!
