Idiom of the Day

📚skate on thin ice

Meaning:
If you're skating on thin ice, you're doing something risky, or you're in a situation that could quickly become dangerous.

❕For example:

🔺Don't you think you'll be skating on thin ice if you go to the U.S. without getting health insurance? Medical care is incredibly expensive there.

🔺Kenny's skating on thin ice. He's already on parole, and yet he's still driving around without a licence.

➕Origin: Probably related to the fact that skating on an ice-covered lake can be very dangerous if the ice is thin in places. It could easily break under the weight of a person, and the person could fall into the ice-cold water and drown.
