Today we are going to “break the ice” (to initiate a conversation in a social setting) about idioms.

What Is an Idiom?

For those who don’t know already, an idiom is a phrase or an expression that has a figurative meaning different from its literal meaning. These expressions are often culturally specific and can be challenging for non-native speakers to understand because their meanings cannot be deduced from the actual individual words.

We have all used idioms without realizing it, as many have become part of our everyday language.

Idioms are used to convey a particular sentiment or nuance and are a common feature in many languages, adding richness and color to speech and writing. They are often used in informal conversations and can express complex ideas in a few words.

For example, "spill the beans" (to reveal a secret), which cannot be understood just by knowing the meanings of "spill" and "beans."

Common Usages

So, let’s “bite the bullet” (to endure a painful experience bravely) and go through some of the most used idioms.

So, let’s not “bite off more than you can chew” (to take on a task that is too big) and start with some easy ones to understand. When something is unusual or unexpected, we can say that it comes around “once in a blue moon” (something that happens very rarely) or if we don’t expect it to occur, we can say that it will happen “when pigs fly” (something that will never happen).

Those Based on History

Some idioms have a cultural history. Take hit the sack (to go to bed) comes from the late 19^th century when mattresses were sacks filled with straw or other soft materials.

The saying “steal someone's thunder” (to take the credit for something someone else did) comes from an invention to duplicate the thunder in a stage play. The play that it was built for was quickly cancelled only to have it reappear in another play without the inventor’s permission.

Making An Idiom Purr

Some idioms honor our furry friends.

For example, if it is going to “rain cats and dogs” (rain very heavily) and it doesn’t arrive, you can say that the meteorologist was “barking up the wrong tree” (looking in the wrong place or accusing the wrong person).

If you “let the cat out of the bag” (to accidentally reveal a secret) that’s probably not a good thing. On the other hand, if you “kill two birds with one stone” (to solve two problems with a single action) you might be rewarded for your quick thinking.

Business Sayings

As we can see, idioms are colorful expressions woven into everyday language. Let’s “cut to the chase” (to get to the point without wasting time) about how a small business can be successful that won’t “cost an arm and a leg” very expensive) and that’s finding ways to adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI) into your business.

AI is like having “the best of both worlds” (a situation wherein one can enjoy the benefits of two different opportunities). It is an inexpensive option for a small business to help save money with content creation, solution solving and even predicting future outcomes.

Small businesses that have initiated an AI adoption are finding new and innovative ways to start “competing with the big boys” (to challenge a larger or more experienced business or person) and “level the playing field” (creating a fair and equal situation in competition).
