money
Cost an arm and a leg
To be extremely expensive
Under the weather
Feeling slightly ill or unwell
Keep your eye on the ball
Be focused on your goal
In a tight spot
In a difficult situation
Spill the beans
Reveal a secret information about somebody
Make ends meet
to have just enough money to pay for your basic needs
Once in a blue moon
Something very rare
Miss the boat
Lose an opportunity
Add fuel to fire
Make a bad situation worse
Eat like a horse
Eat a lot of food
Have money to burn
To have so much money that you can spend it freely on unnecessary things
Bite the bullet
To face a difficult situation bravely
Hit the books
Study very hard
Out of the blue
Unexpectedly, without a warning
Not my cup of tea
not something you personally like or enjoy.
Go dutch
For each person to lay for their own share of a meal or activity
Read between the lines
To understand a hidden meaning
Go back to square one
return to the beginning because a plan or attempt has failed.
The last straw
the final problem that makes you unable to tolerate a situation anymore.
In a nutshell
In a very breif or simple way
Money talks
Money can influence people’s decision
Throw someone under the bus
To blame or sacrifice somebody to save yourself
Raise the bar
increase the standard or level of performance expected.
A blessing in disguise
something that seems bad at first but eventually turns out to be beneficial.
Have a sweet tooth
Enjoy eating sweet foods
