EXPRESSIONS WITH BODY PARTS: TO BITE SOMEONE'S ____ OFF: meaning and examples
Hello, everyone!
If you've been reading the Daily Vitamin this week, then you know that our theme is Expressions with Body Parts. We are looking for the missing word that completes the expression below. Do you know it?
Idiom: To bite someone's _____ off
Definition: To speak to someone angrily when there is no reason to be angry.
Example 1: I asked the waiter if they had any vegan menu options, and she bit my _____ off. I guess in a steakhouse they don't get that request very often.
Example 2: I understand that you're angry that the bus is late, but you didn't have to bite my _____ off when I asked you for the time.
If you know the missing body part, give us your answer on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter) and we will post the correct answer later. We will also give you the correct answer in tomorrow's Daily Vitamin email.
That's it for today. Thanks for reading!
