  • Hi there, this is Harry, and welcome to my podcast, where I try to give you a better understanding of the english language to help you with your conversation, your business.

  • English, perhaps English needed for interviews.

  • Whatever the circumstances, we can help you with the grammar, pronunciation, and all other aspects.

  • I'll give you my contact details at the end of the podcast.

  • If there's somebody you feel might benefit from this and you want to pass the details on, or indeed if you want to contact me yourself.

  • So what are we going to talk about?

  • Well, in this particular podcast, we're going to talk about clothes, and in particular, we're going to refer to idioms with clothes.

  • So, as I always do, I'm going to give you the list of the particular idioms, one after the other.

  • Then I'll go through them one by one and give you some examples.

  • Okay, let's get started.

  • Here they go.

  • Roll up your sleeves, hot under the collar, tighten your belt, put a sock in it, wear one's heart on one's sleeve, out of pocket, get the boot, all talk and no trousers.

  • Get your knickers in a twist, knock your socks off.

  • Okay, so they're the idioms about clothes, some of them a little bit strange and they sound a little bit strange, but I'll explain them and hopefully you'll understand them.

  • Okay, the first one is quite simple.

  • The sleeves are the what?

  • Cover your arms.

  • Okay.

  • Your left sleeve, your right sleeve.

  • And when we say to roll up your sleeves, it usually means we're going to begin working.
