English Idiom David Bowen

We speak from the body in so many ways:: - in the first place, physically, to show or perhaps try to disguise our feelings but, just as often, idiomatically. The 'arm and the leg' is the frightful cost of something. If we need it we must 'pay through the nose'. We get a person 'off our back' if no longer a burden. We 'lose face' if our reputation falls or we may try to 'save face'. In this second book on the English idiom you will find as many such examples as you will meet in a month, or a year. Who knows?!
