TO PULL THE WOOL OVER SOMEONE'S EYES
TO PULL THE WOOL OVER SOMEONE'S EYES: meaning and examples
Good morning. I hope everyone had a nice weekend.
Today we are going to answer a question that we received from Marta Macià. Marta asked about the meaning of the phrase to pull the wool over your eyes.
Today's expression is: to pull the wool over your eyes
Meaning: to try to deceive someone or to hide your real intentions from somebody.
Example 1:
Mr Millet managed to pull the wool over the public's eyes for some time, but in the end he was caught.
Example 2:
You paid 250 euros for that watch?! That's not a Rolex; it's just a cheap copy. You really got the wool pulled over your eyes!
