Review Summary

  • Literal meaning vs. Figurative usage

常见错误

Idioms are fixed expressions; you cannot change the number of the noun inside them.

Wrong: Он бьёт баклушу.
正确: Он бьёт баклуши.

Idioms have fixed imagery; changing the body part ruins the meaning.

Wrong: Я водил его за ухо.
正确: Я водил его за нос.

You must use the specific metaphor established in the language, not a synonym.

Wrong: Как дождь на голову.
正确: Как снег на голову.

常见问题 (2)

It means to lie to someone, usually by telling them long, detailed, and false stories. Think of it as 'pulling someone's leg' but more about deception.
No, it's about time and tasks. You use it when you haven't had the chance to do something, like reply to a message or clean your room.
