 Re: Body Part Idioms.
"You're very cheeky." If some one is cheeky, then they're rude, but in a playful manner.
"I need a shoulder to cry on." If someone needs a shoulder to cry on, they need some one who can provide them with emotional support.
"She gave me the elbow." If some one gives you "the elbow" then they're removing you from what ever it is you two were involved in. For example, if a lady decides to end a relationship with her boyfriend/husband, she has given him the elbow.
"You're very nosey." If some one is nosey, then they try to find out about private things of others which shouldn't concern them. |
