Beschrijving

This week I cover some Social Media questions, and go through the grammar of modals and first conditionals. 1. Swan Song Meaning: The last piece of work of an artist before his/her death. To die with some grand achievement. Example: Misty Mountain Hop was Led Zepplin’s swan song. 2. Wild Goose Chase/hunt Meaning: Futile (meaningless) Chase Example: Catching the two thieves together on a jam-packed road was no less than a wild goose chase for the policeman. 3. Bury the Hatchet Meaning: Ending a quarrel (argument/fight) to make peace. Example: My father buried the hatchet by equally dividing the pasta between me and my sister.
