ANIMAL IDIOMS (TALK TURKEY)

Good morning to our readers!

Did you know that it's Thanksgiving in the United States today? (Thanksgiving in Canada was on Monday, October 8th.) We chose an appropriate Animal Idiom for today: TO TALK TURKEY. 

Definition: To talk business; to talk honestly and directly. 

Example 1: We started the meeting by talking about his family, and then we talked turkey. 

Example 2: So, let's talk turkey. What is your company willing to offer us for this sale?

We thought that since we eat turkey at Thanksgiving that this would be an appropriate time to learn this idiom.

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it!

At Ziggurat we are thankful for you, our readers, and the chance to communicate and practice English with you.

Have a great day!
