5 分钟Welcome to the 80s English Podcast.
My name is Jack, and I'm here with my co-host, Xochitl.
And today we are going to do three more idioms for you.
And Xochitl, today's idioms are related to not understanding something.
Again, these are very relatable to me.
So the first one is to go over one's head.
To go over one's head.
It means that you didn't quite catch or understand something.
Like if someone made a joke and you didn't understand the joke, it went over your head.
Exactly.
Yes.
That's a really good definition or good example, because I think that,
you know, there's a lot of people that will reference like a book or.
an author or someone famous, a scientist or something.
And if you don't know who that person is, then the whole conversation can go over your head.
So yeah, I think it's pretty common.
I think we use this idiom quite a bit as well, if I'm not mistaken.
Do you use it?
Yes.
Yes, it's very common.
