Words About Clothes: Let''''s See If I Can Name a Few Off the Cuff
Now, the VOA Special English program "Words and the stories". Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let''s see if I can name a few off the cuff or without any preparation. People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are restless or nervous have ants in their pants. They might also flight by the seat of their pants; they use their natural senses to do something instead of their learnt knowledge. Sometimes people make a court with their pants down, they are found doing something they should not be doing. And in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do, then we say she wears the pants in the family. Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket. Sometimes, you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to tighten your belt, you may have to live on less money and spend your money carefully. But once you have succeeded in budgeting your money, you will have that skill under your belt. I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much, I really take my hat off to them. Yet when I come to my own money I send it at the drop of a hat, immediately without waiting. And sadly, you can not pour money out of the hat, you cannot get money by inventing or imagining it. Boots are heavy or strong shoes. People who are too big for their boots think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people, I really do, you can bet your boots on that. Yet truly important people are hard to replace, rarely can you fill their shoes or replace them with someone equally effective. My father is an important person, he runs a big company. He wears a suite and tie and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too firm and severe. They think he is a real staunch shirt but I know that my father wear his heart on sleeves, he shows his feeling openly and he knows how to keep his shirt on, he stays calm and never get angry, or too excited. Also, my father has never lost his shirt in a business deal, he is too smart to lose all or most of his money this is because my father rolls up his sleeves and prepare to work hard. He often has a special plan or answer to a problem that he can use if he needs it. He?Ts like a person who does magic tricks; we say he has a card of his sleeves.
