Today I will teach you

some English idioms.

The first idiom is

'hit the nail on the head',

this means to do something

perfectly.

The flat part of a nail used

for building is called the head.

If you hit it on the head

with hammer,

you will do the task perfectly.

The second idiom is

'hold your horses',

which means stop and wait.

This is usually used

when someone is rushing

into something.

The origin of this phrase is

unknown but it's probably

related to horse riding

or horse drawn carriages.

The third idiom is

'break a leg',

which means good luck.

In the theatre

it is considered unlucky

to say 'good luck' to a performer.

Therefore,

it became common

to say 'break a leg' instead.

These days,

it is also said outside

the theatre

as another way

of saying good luck.

I hope that now

you can be comfortable

using these idioms
