English Idioms：習語

| An idiom is a phrase or a fixed expression that has a figurative, or sometimes literal, meaning. An idiom's figurative meaning is different from the literal meaning. It is estimated that there are at least twenty-five thousand idiomatic expressions in the English language. Here are some of the most popular one. Quite a few idioms use the word "feather'. 'in full feather' and 'a feather in the cap' are two of them. Which one of them is better suit to describe the girl in the picture? |
| 英文習語是英語裏面一些約定俗成的表達語句，近似中文的成語。但它們和中文成語有一個重大的差異，那就是英文習語要表達的含量，大多和字面上的意思大相大相逕庭。據估計，英文習語有近二萬五千個之多，是學習英語的一個難關。本欄為你介紹了一些較常見的，希望能引起你的興趣。 某些諺語都用上了「羽毛」一詞，以下這兩個帶「羽毛」的諺語裏面，哪一個較能表達上面這圖片？ in full feather a feather in the cap |
