【English in a Minute一分钟英语】24-Costs a Pretty Penny 已有12人参与

Welcome to English in a Minute. America, the land of Hollywood, can sometimes be too concerned with things looking pretty. This is going to cost a pretty penny. Is she worried about making their money look good? Sometimes American English does not make any sense. A: Did you see that car? B: Oh, my gosh! That car is awesome. A: Yes, I bet it is really fast. B: That car must have cost a pretty penny! Ah, it means that something costs a lot of money. Some say the phrase came from a special coin a British king had made long ago. American English is very descriptive, and sometimes we put a colorful word in front of a noun to get our meaning across. And that's English in a Minute. |
