FOOT / FEET / LEG

FOOT / FEET / LEG

  1. He hardly ever puts a foot wrong. He never seems to make any mistakes.
  2. My feet hardly touched the ground. I was so busy.
  3. They have really fallen on their feet. They inherited a lot of money and bought a lovely holiday house in the Bahamas.
  4. He hasn't got a leg to stand on. What he did was quite wrong and cannot be excused.
  5. Come on, shake a leg. We haven't got all day. We've got to finish this by lunchtime.
  6. He started off on the wrong foot by arriving late on his first day at work.
  7. The first leg of the journey was from Paris to Barcelona. The second leg was from Barcelona to Rabat.
  8. I like to put my feet up after a hard day's work and spend the entire evening relaxing.
  9. You will have to put your foot down. It's about time he learnt that he cannot have everything he wants.
