dilek Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) this is such an educational thread! I have two questions: - what's pettifrogging? My dictionary has only pettiflogging . - what expression "devil may care" means? at your first question, it's a made up word by FD i guess:naughty: it's origin is pettifogging:roftl: and as far as i know devil may care means something like taking it easy my dictionary says:carefree or easy-going,without worry or responsibility etc.. *waits for the teachers to correct her* Edited January 11, 2009 by dilek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vedrana Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 at your first question, it's a made up word by FD i guess:naughty:it's origin is pettifogging:roftl: and as far as i know devil may care means something like taking it easy my dictionary says:carefree or easy-going,without worry or responsibility etc.. *waits for the teachers to correct her* ok, thanks (loving pettifogging doesn't make sense to me either, but I guess there's some story about it I missed, doesn't really matter when it's not real word) thanks for explanations and your avatar very very unhealthy You know that here when someone smokes a lot we say 'smokes like a Turk' seriously, that's very common expression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mari62 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 ok, thanks (loving pettifogging doesn't make sense to me either, but I guess there's some story about it I missed, doesn't really matter when it's not real word) thanks for explanations and your avatar very very unhealthy You know that here when someone smokes a lot we say 'smokes like a Turk' seriously, that's very common expression There's exactly the same expression in Italian .... and I found this explanation: "Smoking is so widespread and deeply rooted in Turkey that even the French and the Italians -- no slouches themselves when it comes to lighting up -- have made "smoking like a Turk" their byword for chain smokers" No more, says the Turkish Parliament, which has just joined many other countries in Europe by enacting a law that will ban smoking in bars, restaurants and cafes as of next year." http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5hdZr2XcSEW5Mp0KuAeB-tzX-7iwg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
