🦅 Wild West phrases: horses
Howdy, partners! The Wild West sprawled across vast territories. With foot travel impractical and trains not as common, the horse was one of the main ways of travel. So, today, let's get acquainted with some horse-related phrases:
#vocabulary
🐴 hold your horses — used to tell someone to stop and consider carefully their decision or opinion about something.
E.g.: Before signing the contract, Sarah, hold your horses and carefully review the terms and conditions.
👇 come down off your high horse — to stop talking as if you were better or more clever than other people.
E.g.: During the heated debate, Tom had to come down off his high horse and consider alternative viewpoints.
🦓 horse of a different color — a very different thing or issue.
E.g.: Jogging a mile every other day was one thing, but attempting a full marathon was a horse of a different color for Charlie.
🧐 horse sense — practical knowledge and good judgment about ordinary life.
E.g.: The guide displayed horse sense by safely navigating his group through the challenging mountain terrain.

⏰ 3 Time Idioms You Should Know
Did you know that the most accurate clock is at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado? The clock keeps time by measuring the vibration of a single aluminum ion, and should remain accurate for 33 billion years. The clock sitting on your bedside table isn't quite as precise.
#vocabulary
🌒 once in a blue moon — something that happens rarely.
E.g.: Because of the tight budget, our manager buys donuts for the office once in a blue moon.
😵💫 on the spur of the moment — suddenly, without any previous planning or thought.
E.g.: On the spur of the moment, she decided to enter the race that she had come to watch.
☀️ in broad daylight — during the day when people and things can be easily seen rather than at night.
E.g.: Thieves had broken into the house in broad daylight.
