✍🏾Meaning You can say "easy come, easy go" to express the idea that if something comes to someone easily, such as money they get without working hard for it, they can lose it just as easily and it won't matter to them much.
❕For example
🔺Harry's very easy-going, especially when it comes to money. It's easy come, easy go, as far as he's concerned.
🔺The share market's been falling recently, and I've lost a fair bit of money, but it's easy come, easy go, really, because it's just money I've earned from shares in the past.
✍🏾Meaning You can say "each to their own" when you want to point out that we're all different and we all like different things.
❕For example
🔺I can't believe that anyone actually watches those home shopping TV channels, but each to their own, I guess.
🔺Dennis likes keeping snakes, does he? That's seems a strange hobby to me, but each to his own.
Note: 1. We can also say "each to his own" or "each to her own". 2. "To each his own", "to each her own" and "to each their own" are versions used mostly in American English. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Idiom_of_the_Day 🌀@Englishoftheday
✍🏾Meaning If you draw a blank, you get no response when you ask for something, or get no results when you search for something.
❕For example
🔺I did a search on the web for information about the company, but I drew a blank.
🔺He said he tried to remember the date of the meeting, but he drew a blank and couldn't tell us.
Origin: This idiom is probably related to the fact that in some lotteries in Europe in the past, two boxes were used, with one containing slips of paper with the names of contestants written on them, and the other containing both slips of paper on which prizes were shown and blank slips on which nothing was shown. If a contestant's name was drawn from one box, and a blank slip was drawn from the other, the contestant didn't win a prize, and they had "drawn a blank". ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Idiom_of_the_Day 🌀@Englishoftheday
✍🏾Meaning If you eat humble pie, you admit that you are in the wrong and behave apologetically.
❕For example
🔺Jim had to eat humble pie after we proved that what he'd said was wrong.
🔺Some politicians are so arrogant that they won't eat humble pie even when it's clear they've made a mistake. They just say they were "misinformed".
Note: The American idiom "eat crow" has the same meaning. Origin: Possibly derives from "umbles" which is an old word for animal organs like kidneys, lungs, intestines, etc. For the wealthier classes, eating an "umbles pie" might have been seen as something similar to a punishment, but it is not known whether this idiom has any real connection to this.
Variety This idiom is typically used in British English but may be used in other varieties of English too. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Idiom_of_the_Day 🌀@Englishoftheday
✍🏾Meaning a derogatory word meaning a Jewish person
❕For example
🔺When I was at school some of the kids would tease a little boy called Benjamin and call him a "kike". They'd push him and shove him while chanting, "kikey boy, kikey boy". Benjamin would start to cry, and then the kids would laugh and walk away.
🔺Note: WARNING! This word is very offensive to Jewish people, and mostly used by bigots and racists. You should never use it. Warning! This is very bad language. If you are a non-native speaker, you are advised not to use it. (You could cause resentment or anger if you use it inappropriately.)
Variety This is typically used in American English but may be used in other varieties of English too. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Slang_of_the_Day 🌀@Englishoftheday
✍🏾Meaning You can say "enough is enough" if you think someone shouldn't do something because they've done it too many times already, or because they've been doing it for too long.
❕For example

🔺Vicky asked her teacher for the third extension of the deadline for her essay, but he said, "I'm sorry, Vicky, but enough is enough. It's due this Friday, and that's it." ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Idiom_of_the_Day 🌀@Englishoftheday
