It’s almost over! We have reached the last Australian idiom of our series. You can check them all out here.
Today is one of our favourites:
Idiom – To go off like a frog in a sock.
Meaning – To be very excited.
Alternatives – There are lots and lots of expressions that mean being very excited. Let’s have a look at some of them: “bouncing off the walls”, “champing at the bit” (like an excited horse about to race), to be in a “fever pitch”, to be an “eager beaver” and another animal idiom: “to have ants in one’s pants”.
Thanks Hotel Club, for sharing these images, and Jared Atkins for creating them.
Thank you for so many knowledge you transmit on your posts. I should like to know how can I learn the spelling. There are, on facebook, a lot to read and I am very grateful but I miss more material to listen to. Thanks.
Hi Isabel,
Thanks for your question. In terms of spelling it is a case of learning little by little and memorisation. Keep up the good work and best of luck
So much fun to learn more ediomatic expression! Thanks ABA & more power
