Walk of life/walks of life


What does it mean?

May I ask for some examples, please?

Hi goingtocalifornia,

walk of life = careers in general

walk of life - a trade, profession, or occupation, as in:

"He'll do well in whatever walk of life he chooses."

This expression uses "walk" in sense of "line of work".

walks of life = an occupation, profession,or social class.

"People from all walks of life support the cause."

Regards.

He was a barman at that time, and he had been working with dedication. That was his walk of life. He had the opportunity to meet people from different walks of life.

I think I got it right.

Thanks vil.
