The origins of idioms and sayings 4 out of 5 stars

Reviewed by: tdol, Sep 18 2006 8:45AM

A interesting site that looks at the origins of idioms. The selection is not that large, but it does get updated, so the list is growing. Some entries have a definition rather than an explanation of the origin. Users can submit information too.
