TO GIVE IT A SHOT
TO GIVE IT A SHOT: meaning and examples
I hope you had a great weekend.
Today's expression is: to give it a shot (informal)
It means: to try doing something.
Example 1:
Child: I'll never be able to hit the ball!
Mother: Come on, Allison. Give it a shot! If you miss, you can just try again.
Example 2:
Account Manager: Some of the biggest companies in the area are bidding for that contract.
CEO: Well, we are a pretty small company but I still think we should give it a shot.
