    Bite Your Tongue = keep yourself from speaking ...
    You "bite your tongue" to keep yourself quiet and not say what you want to say. Example: "I wanted to tell her what I really thought of her dress, but I just bit my tongue." It is not always right to speak out and express what comes to mind; at times you should bite your tongue and keep quiet. Example: "Whenever that professor says something I don''t like, I have to bite my tongue." When you really want to speak out, but you know you should not, it is best to just bite your tongue. Example: "Just as the coach started yelling, he slipped and fell. We all had to bite our tongues to keep from laughing."

    Finding Your Feet = feeling more comfortable in what you are doing ...
    You are "finding your feet" when you are learning what to do and becoming more comfortable acting in a certain type of situation. Example: "I''ve only been at this job for a few months. I''m just finding my feet." It takes time to find your feet, because you need to learn what to do and become comfortable doing it. Example: "I was at that job for over a year before I really found my feet." You have gained the needed skills and are performing your job well, once you have found your feet. Example: "Don''t worry about it. We will help you out until you find your feet."
    idiom này hiểu theo Tiếng Việt là : Hài lòng về những gì mình đang làm

    letting the cat out of the bag = sharing a secret
    You let the cat out of the bag when you tell a big secret. Example: "Bob didn''t want anyone to know he was sick, but his wife let the cat out of the bag."
    A secret is like a cat that has been kept a bag. Once you let the cat out of the bag, it goes wherever it wants. Example: "We were going to keep our plans to get married a family secret, but my mother let the cat out of the bag."
    The person who told the secret is the one who let the cat out of the bag. Example: "Hey! Who let the cat out of the bag?" Example: "Oops. It looks like I let the cat out of the bag."

    Cross Your Fingers = hoping it happens that way ...
    An old superstition says that if you cross your fingers (usually two fingers of the same hand) it will bring good luck. Example: "I don''t know what I will get for my birthday, but I am crossing my fingers that it will be a bicycle."
    You cross your fingers when you try to make something happen by wishing that it will happen. A common saying: "Let''s cross our fingers and hope for the best." Example: "Good luck on your test tomorrow. We''ll be crossing our fingers for you!" Reply: "Thanks."
    The meaning of don''t cross your fingers changes a bit. It means don''t hope too much for what you want to happen, because there is a strong chance that it might not happen. It means that you should not have expectations that are too high. Example: "It would be great if our team won today, but don''t cross your fingers." Example: "We are hoping that John will get accepted to medical school, but we are not crossing our fingers."
