HEART TO HEART serious and intimate 1. I have to talk to you about something that is serious and very important to both of us. I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. 2. You always make a joke about everything, and you never talk to me seriously about things that are important. Don’t you ever talk heart to heart with anyone? HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD to come to the right conclusion 1. Henry wouldn’t tell his wife what was wrong, but when she asked him if he had lost his job, she could tell by the look on his face that she had hit the nail on the head. 2. We sat around the table trying to figure out why the project wasn’t working. Everyone suggested ideas and possibilities. When Leslie outlined what she thought the problem was, we could all see that she had hit the nail on the head. HOT UNDER THE COLLAR very angry 1. When Tammy tried to blame the mistake on Sue, Sue got hot under the collar. 2. I get hot under the collar every time I remember how rude the bank manager was to us. |
