Dead to the world<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Grin_and_bear_it\"><\/span>1. Grin and bear it<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an interesting idiom that I stumbled upon while checking the dictionary. It means &#8220;to accept a bad situation and bear it&#8221;. That is to say, no matter how bad something that happened to you is, you&#8217;ll have to deal with it and accept it without complaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To divide this idiom, we look first at the verb &#8220;to grin&#8221;, which means to smile broadly, and then the verb &#8220;to bear&#8221;, which means to endure something and deal with it. So, it simply means to smile and accept a bad situation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>EX<\/em><\/strong>: You can&#8217;t change the past. It is what it is now and all you can do is to <strong>grin and bear it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, he can&#8217;t change the past. He&#8217;ll just have to smile and deal with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Bet_ones_bottom_dollar\"><\/span>2. Bet one&#8217;s bottom dollar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you bet the bottom dollar on something, this means that you&#8217;re sure and certain that something will be as you thought it will be. It&#8217;s like you&#8217;re challenging someone that something will happen for sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>EX<\/em><\/strong>: These two people will never be friends and I <strong>bet my bottom dollar <\/strong><em><strong>on<\/strong> <\/em>it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see in the example above, I&#8217;m sure that those two people will never become friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Call_the_shots\"><\/span>3. Call the shots<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To call the shots is to be in control of something or to give orders in a particular situation. If you&#8217;re the one calling the shots, you&#8217;re the one taking the lead and the one taking decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>EX<\/em><\/strong>: In every classroom, it is the teacher who <strong>calls the shots<\/strong>, not the students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think this example explains the idiom well. The teacher in the classroom is the one in control. You better not disrespect him\/her \ud83d\ude05 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s the one <strong>calling the shots<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Jumpclimb_on_the_bandwagon\"><\/span>4. Jump\/climb on the bandwagon<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To jump on the wagon is &#8220;to follow the crowd in following a popular position, activity, or fashion. To make it simple, if you&#8217;re not a fan of fashion and you usually don&#8217;t follow the latest trends of the times but you suddenly start giving attention to it, you jump in the bandwagon of fashion and you follow the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>EX<\/em><\/strong>: Jim was never a fan of this particular style, but recently I think she&#8217;s considering <strong>jumping on the bandwagon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Dead_to_the_world\"><\/span>5. Dead to the world<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This one is the simplest of all. If you&#8217;re dead to the world, you fall asleep quickly. It is a strong idiom because when you&#8217;re dead to the world, this usually means that you&#8217;re sleeping soundly and you are dead to whatever is happening around you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>EX<\/em><\/strong>: I kept knocking on the door with all the power I got, but I think he was <strong>dead to the world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Ok, guys!
