Happy Sunday, everyone!In today's episode, I am going to teach you all about the English expression "to go off like a frog in a sock" -- aahh, a very unique expression, isn't it?Yeah, I'd say I don't hear it much from people outside of Australia and I am excited to tell you all about it today.I will also be answering a question from Jodie from China. She asks "Could you please tell me what was the difference between 'here you go' and 'there you go'?"An excellent question! So definitely tune in to hear my answer for that.As always, I will break down the words in the expression "to go off like a frog in a sock" and give you example situations where you may use the expression.And finally, find a quiet place, grab a pen and paper because I will be playing a clip from the classic Australian movie Crocodile Dundee.
