Idioms: Sayings and Phrases

 

Part I

 

Ace in the Hole

The apple of my eye

Barking up the wrong tree

Between a rock and a hard place

Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed

By the sking of your teeth

Called on the carpet

Clean as a whistle

Crocodile tears

A dime a dozen

Draw the line

Dressed to the nines

Have cole feet

If the shoe fits, wear it

Jump ship

Kill two birds with one stone

Let your hair down

Make a mountain out of a molehill

Mind your Ps and Qs

Monkey business

Off the deep end

Out of sight, out of mind

Paint the town red

A picture paints a thousand words

A pig in a poke

Pull up stakes

Put the cart before the horse

Read between the lines

Selling like hotcakes

Smell like a rose

Stuffed shirt

Turn the other cheek

Wet behing the ears

A wolf in sheep's clothing

 

Part II

 

Bats in the belfry

Birds of a feather flock together

Bring home the bacon

can't hold a candle to

cry over spilled milk

dog days of summer

A drop in the bucket

egg on your face

fish or cut bait

fly off the handle

Get your goat

Go the extra mile

hit the nail on the head

In one ear and out the other

keep your nose to the Grindstone

left out in the cold

let the cat out of the bag

long in the tooth

nip it in the bud

once in a blue moon

pay through the nose

pull a fast one

rain check

roll with the punches

skeletons in the closet

step on it

take the bull by the horns

toe the line

upset the apple cart

white elephant

 

 

 

 

 

Sayings and Phrases - Part III

 

An apple a day keeps the doctor away

Back to square one

Beat around the bush

Begggars can't be choosers

Behind the scenes

Below the bullet

Bolt from blue

Burning the midnight oil

Bury the hatchet

Catch-22

Caught red handed

A chip on your shoulder

Dead as a doornail

Down an hatch

 

 

Easy an falling off a log

Face the music

Go fly a kite

Have your cake and eat it too

Ignorance is bliss

Keep a stiff upper lip

Make ends meet

Miss the boat

On cloud nine

Out of the blue

Pit stop

Pull your hair out

Read the riot act

A shot in the dark

Spill the beans

Through the grapevine

Turn the tables

A wet blanket

X marks the spot
