This is not a "goodbye", this is just a "see you soon"!!

Hi guys! Unfortunately, our job with this blog is temporally finished, as we are thinking about keeping working on it if you are really finding it useful. Because of that, we really need you to complete the following questionnaire to make a decision about the blog. It wouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes. Thank you very much for helping us in advance.

A man may learn wit everyday!

How is going, guys? Weekend is near and we are anxiously waiting for it. Sincerely, we need to have a rest. Are you ready to learn a new idiomatic expression? Today's choice is: TO TAKE SOMETHING WITH A GRAIN/PINCH OF SALT.

1. Meaning
  • To take something with grain of salt or a pinch of salt means not to take it too seriously or too literally.
  • To not completely believe something you are told, because you think it is unlikely to be true.
2. Examples

3. Note
Take something with a grain of salt is more common in American and Australian English, while take something with a pinch of salt is more common in British English.
