This book isn’t just about idioms; it’s about stories from the past that explain why we say what we do. I found it so interesting to learn that “to run amuck” comes from warriors in Southeast Asia who fought wildly. It makes me appreciate everyday expressions more. Easy to read and full of cool facts, perfect for anyone who loves learning new things.
