Hey you!
Let's go on with our Animal Week learning some animal idioms.
Do you know what it means when I say:
"She has ants on your pants."
or
"He's chickened out before the flight."
or maybe
"There's something fishy going on."?
Well, check it out:
1. To have ants on your pants: to be unable to sit still or remain calm out of nervousness or excitement.
E.g.: Lisa had ants in her pants the day before her interview.
2. To chicken out: to decide not to do something out of fear (usually just before)
E.g.: I was going to take a ride on Geoff's motorcycle, but I chickened out when he gave me a helmet to wear.
3. Fishy: odd, suspicious
E.g.: I knew something fishy was going on when I saw all of my friends' cars in my mom's driveway.
