Great lesson, Wes! If it weren’t for you, I would have thought 'Hit the ground running' meant ending a process, and 'going the extra mile' meant doing something absurd. 😅 Thanks!

Keep it up. Thank you very much . Your lessons are usually up to par.

Is there any difference between the following three idioms? to have one's work cut out to have one's hands full to be run off one's feet Or do they have basically the same meaning? 🤔🤔🤔

[@AnnaM-w35]

Hi, Wes. Your work is cut out for you means you are good at that, doesn't it? Thanks for your work in teaching us.

[@InteractiveEng]

It really means you have a difficult task ahead of you or something challenging to do. 'You have your work cut out for you.' 👍

[@nolanivane4477]

At the resort where I work at now, a lot of my coworkers tend to cut corners most of the time so I end up having a lot on my plate just to pick up the slack. A couple of nights ago I had to burn the midnight because one of them wasn't on the same page with my manager (from an issue regarding her paycheck) and just decided to leave work; Although IMHO she's one of those locally-hired employees whose quality of work is always not up to par and doesn't like pulling her weight. Ha! Hope I did well. :D

Nice use of the idioms. Keep up the good work. 👍

“having my work cut out for myself/me” is it correct??

[@InteractiveEng]

It's not really used in the continuous tense. Mostly is stated as some sort of fact or truth, which is why it's often used in the present simple. Or it may be used in the past if finished. 👍

Wait! Did Elsa just give you 96%!? 😳

[@InteractiveEng]

LOL...That's right. With apps like this, even though the number is provided, I would not focus on the percentage but on the individual sounds that may get flagged for your reference. 👍

[@NickoReese]

@@InteractiveEng I'll keep that in mind when practicing with Elsa. I was becoming too obsessed with the percentage tbh! But the voice recognition, although quite advanced, is still a bit far from perfect. Thanks, Wes!

It was unnecessary to imply that your lesson is up to par - it is a natural thing. You did not learn the ropes yesterdays and you always go the extra mile (not the extra smile). Do you know similar word plays? thank you for the lesson.
