random
word of the day: MAKE A BEELINE FOR – udać się prosto w kierunku, wybrać
najkrótszą drogę (to go directly and quickly towards)
A
BEELINE – a quick and direct route (from the belief that bees take
such routes when they return to their hives)
(1)
The children wolfed down their compulsory rice with soup and made a
beeline for the sweets!
(2) I always make a beeline for the clearance section after a quick stop at
the dollar isle.
(3) We do not even think twice and make a beeline for
the bar stools. A mistake, because
they are the most uncomfortable, slippery
stools I have ever sat on.
a route – trasa (a particular
way of getting somewhere)
a hive – ul (where bees live)
to wolf down – pochłaniać, jeść
łapczywie (to eat a large amount of food very quickly)
compulsory – obowiązkowy (non-optional)
a clearance – czyszczenie magazynów
(when goods are offered for sale cheaply so that people will be encouraged to
buy them and there will be space for new goods)
the dollar isle – dział:
wszystko za dolara (a section in a shop where everything costs $1 or less)
slippery – śliski (smooth so
that it causes something to slide)
A BAR STOOL |
