How this website works:
When you hear or see an expression or a sentence you don’t understand (even though it contains words that you know), then maybe it’s time for you to use our website. 

Use one or more of those words as Key Words and do a search as explained below.  The search will generate one or more results which contain your key words. 

     
Help with Key Words:
Follow these simple rules for better search results:

• Use one or more of the keywords to do your search.
• Do not use words such as “the”, “to”, “with”, “for”, “they”, etc., as they will generate too many results.
• If you use a verb as a key word, and you don’t find what you’re looking for, use other forms or tenses of the same verb.

Examples: 
Expression:         Egg on one's face.
Key words:         Egg, face.

Expression:         Holding someone's feet to the fire.
Key words:         Holding, feet, fire.

Expression:         Sitting on one's hands.
Key words:         Sitting, one's hands, hands.
