7 out of 8 I seem to rock
Oh well done! That’s impressive 🙂
I got 8 out of 8. I am happy with this result. 🙂
You should be – nobody can beat it! Thanks for playing, Aniko 🙂
Accidentally clicked the first choice when I intended to choose the last one. My score should have been 6/8.
Good quiz!
Well 6/8 is a good score, so well done!
Seven out of eight on this quiz.
Excellent score, DPGuy!
Thank you Norman for the kind comments.
Great quiz ! Only the song Tomorrow is not correct . I’m not good at songs but I’m good at idioms 🙂
You must be very good at idioms! Some of these were quite hard. Thanks for playing 🙂
I really am. I like idioms very much and needed to know them while I was studying. 🙂
You’re welcome! I enjoyed playing 🙂
I got 5 out of 8. *sobs*
5/8 is not so bad – no need for sobs!
Had to guess at a few so was surprised at 100% score. Have always known #3 to mean going forward with something as if there are no consequences. Will have to pay closer attention next time I hear it!
Super quiz! 🙂 Not only because I got all correct, but because you found really interesting idioms and examples. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it, Zaklina 🙂
You got 7 out of 8 right!
Perfect. You rock!
Didn’t know the musical (didn’t know the Beatles song either but ‘tuka lag gya’… 🙂
Quiz: Today, Tomorrow… and Yesterday
You got 6 out of 8 right!
Nice score, Branka! You must know English idioms well 🙂
5/8, some idioms were a great find for me, thank you very much for them!
I love learning idioms in other tongues, so I’m happy you enjoyed these anglophone ones!
You got 2 out of 8 right!
Could be better
LOL Snezana, don’t take the score to heart! Thank you for playing 🙂
Quite a good quiz I had exactly the 7 answers. Super.
Well done, Robin! Thank you for playing 🙂
