This week’s question is from Du Min and it is about the meaning and usage of the English idiom ‘a hundred and one things’.

The idiomatic part of this phrase ‘a hundred and one’ can be used instead of the words ‘too many’ or ‘lots of’.

How many idioms do you know?

In the UK, idioms form part of our everyday conversations. Sometimes people don’t even realise they’re using them. There are many idioms that contain numbers, often large numbers such as a hundred or a million that are used for emphasis.

When you learn an idiom, you need to find out if it is still popular and frequently used in everyday conversation. Using an outdated or unpopular idiom in conversation could sound very silly.

Tracy and Li talk about the idiom ‘a hundred and one’ and introduce four other popular idioms containing the number one. Listen to the programme and read the script by clicking on the links at the top and bottom of this page.

We hope we have answered your question Du Min and look forward to receiving more questions about the English language.
