MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO: meaning and examples
Hello again, everyone. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. I hope you are having an excellent day.
Today we look at another English expression, which is quite playful.
Today's expression is: MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO
Meaning: this expression refers to when someone is learning something by imitation, without understanding why or how it works and without concern for possible consequences.
Example 1: In any business or corporation, people usually adopt behaviors that they observe in others, displaying a monkey see, monkey do dynamic. That dynamic is what we call the "culture" of the organization.
Example 2: When it comes to trends in fashion, it's a case of monkey see, monkey do, with almost everyone following the latest styles. That's why social media influencers are so important to many brands.
I encourage you to practice a bit of writing in English. Can you create your own original sentence using this expression? You can post your sentence on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Twitter/X) and we will give you feedback about it ASAP.
Have a great day!
