1. Cool as a cucumber

“Cool as a cucumber” adalah idiom populer yang menggambarkan seseorang yang tetap tenang dan
tenang, terutama dalam situasi yang penuh tekanan atau tantangan.

Asal usul idiom ini dapat ditelusuri kembali ke awal abad ke-18. Penggunaan yang tercatat paling awal
adalah dalam sebuah puisi oleh penyair Inggris John Gay “New Song on New Similes”, yang diterbitkan
pada tahun 1732, di mana dia menulis: “Cool as a cucumber could see / The rest of womankind”. Di sini,
Gay menggunakan idiom tersebut untuk menggambarkan seorang wanita yang tetap tenang dan tidak
terganggu oleh tindakan orang lain.

Ungkapan ini diyakini berasal dari kemampuan mentimun untuk mempertahankan suhu dinginnya,
karena mentimun tampaknya tetap dingin saat disentuh bahkan dalam cuaca hangat. Properti fisik ini
kemudian secara metaforis digunakan untuk menggambarkan sikap seseorang.

Kalian dapat menggunakannya dalam contoh kalimat seperti ini: “Even when the deadline was
approaching and everyone else was panicking, Sarah was as cool as a cucumber.”

Dalam contoh ini, frasa tersebut digunakan untuk menonjolkan sikap tenang seseorang dalam situasi
yang berpotensi menimbulkan stres.
2. Hold your horses

Ungkapan “hold your horses” adalah cara memberitahu seseorang untuk memperlambat, bersabar, atau
berhenti dan berpikir sebelum melanjutkan suatu tindakan. Ini sering digunakan ketika seseorang sedang
terburu-buru atau ingin segera melakukan sesuatu dan orang lain ingin mereka lebih berhati-hati atau
sabar.

Ungkapan ini berasal dari masa ketika kuda adalah moda transportasi utama. Ungkapan tersebut
digunakan secara harfiah pada awalnya, ditujukan kepada orang-orang yang mengendalikan kendaraan
yang ditarik kuda. “Hold your horses” berarti menjaga agar kuda tidak bergerak, mencegahnya lari atau
memperlambat laju kuda..

Penggunaan idiom tertulis paling awal diketahui berasal dari penulis Amerika, David Crockett, yang
menulis dalam “Tour to North and Down East” (1835): “I told him to hold on his horses a little.”

Bayangkan saat kalian bersama seorang teman yang dengan cepat bersemangat mengutarakan ide
bisnis baru yang ia miliki. Dia sudah berbicara tentang berhenti dari pekerjaan dan menginvestasikan
semua uang. Kalian bisa mengatakan kepada mereka seperti ini, “Hold your horses! You need to do
some research and think this through before making any big decisions.”

3. Walking on air

Ungkapan “walking on air” digunakan untuk mengungkapkan keadaan kebahagiaan atau kegembiraan
yang luar biasa. Ini sering digunakan ketika seseorang merasa sedang hepi banget sampai mereka
merasa seringan udara atau seolah-olah sedang melayang di udara.

Beginilah salah satu contoh penggunaannya:, after receiving the news of her promotion, Sally was so
happy that she was walking on air for the rest of the day.

Idiom ini biasanya digunakan dalam konteks percakapan yang lebih informal.
Menambah tone percakapan menjadi berwarna dan ekspresif untuk melukiskan kebahagiaan atau
kegembiraan.

Jadi, jika kalian mendengar seseorang berkata bahwa mereka “walking on air”, artinya mereka tengah
berbagi kebahagiaan dan kegembiraan dengan kalian!

4. Goody two shoes

“Goody two shoes” adalah istilah yang digunakan untuk menggambarkan seseorang yang selalu
mengikuti aturan, sering kali sampai terasa ngeselin. Orang ini dianggap berperilaku terlalu ‘lurus’.

Istilah ini berasal dari cerita anak-anak dari abad ke-18 yang berjudul “The History of Little Goody Two-
Shoes”. Ceritanya diterbitkan oleh John Newbery pada tahun 1765 dan berkisah tentang seorang gadis
yatim piatu bernama Margery Meanwell, yang menjalani hidup hanya dengan satu sepatu.

Ketika seorang pria kaya memberinya sepasang sepatu lengkap, dia sangat senang sehingga dia memberi
tahu semua orang yang dia temui bahwa dia memiliki dua sepatu. Akhirnya, melalui kebajikan dan
kebaikannya, dia menjadi kaya raya dan menikah dengan pria kaya. Istilah “Goody two shoes” telah
digunakan sejak saat itu untuk menggambarkan seseorang yang sangat baik sampai batas yang
mengganggu.
Misalnya, jika seorang rekan kerja tidak pernah istirahat makan siang yang lama, tidak pernah bergosip,
dan selalu melakukan segalanya sesuai aturan, dan selalu siap lembur walau tidak dibayar, rekan kerja
lain mungkin berkata, “She’s such a goody two-shoes. It’s like she’s trying to be the teacher’s pet!”

Jadi jika kalian mendengar, “Goody two shoes” bukan berarti berhenti memamerkan koleksi sepatu ya.
Itu hanya cara yang penuh warna untuk mengatakan, “Lighten up! You don’t always have to follow the
rules so strictly.”

5. The elephant in the room

Saat seseorang menyebut “the elephant in the room”, jangan panik!

Tidak ada gajah raksasa yang mengunyah tanaman atau mencoba duduk di sofa kalian! Dalam bahasa
idiom, “the elephant in the room” mengacu pada masalah atau situasi tidak nyaman yang jelas diketahui
semua orang, tetapi tidak ada yang mau berdiskusi atau menghadapinya.

Katakanlah ada rapat tim di tempat kerja dan semua orang tahu bahwa PHK akan datang karena kondisi
perusahaan sedang tidak bagus, tetapi tidak ada yang mengungkitnya selama rapat. Setelah rapat, kalian
bisa berkata, “The layoffs were the elephant in the room that no one wanted to talk about.”

6. Bring home the bacon

Ungkapan “bring home the bacon” digunakan untuk menggambarkan upaya menghasilkan uang untuk
menghidupi keluarga. Dalam arti yang lebih luas, itu juga bisa berarti mencapai kesuksesan atau
memenangkan sesuatu.

Ungkapan di atas memiliki sejarah yang agak menarik! Satu teori populer menyatakan bahwa itu berasal
dari Inggris abad ke-12. Cerita berlanjut bahwa sebuah gereja di kota Dunmow akan menghadiahkan
bacon kepada siapa pun yang dapat bersumpah di hadapan Tuhan dan jemaat bahwa dia tidak
bertengkar dengan istrinya selama satu tahun dan satu hari. Pria yang bisa “bring home the
bacon” sangat dihormati di komunitasnya!

Namun, penggunaannya saat ini merujuk pada definisi yang lebih umum yaitu mencari nafkah, berasal
dari Amerika Serikat pada awal abad ke-20. Dipopulerkan dalam dunia tinju, istilah tersebut digunakan
untuk merujuk pada hadiah uang.

Untuk menggunakan idiom ini, kalian bisa mengatakan kalimat seperti, “I work long hours at my job to
bring home the bacon.”

7. Jack of all trades

“Jack of all trades” mengacu pada seseorang yang memiliki pengetahuan dan keterampilan di berbagai
bidang, atau yang dapat melakukan berbagai jenis pekerjaan. Ini biasanya digunakan untuk
mengungkapkan kekaguman atas multiple-skills seseorang.

Istilah “Jack of all trades” telah digunakan sejak tahun 1600-an. Saat itu, ‘Jack’ adalah istilah umum
untuk ‘man‘. Versi lengkap dari frasa tersebut adalah “Jack of all trades, master of none”, menunjukkan
bahwa meskipun mereka mungkin bisa melakukan banyak hal dengan baik, namun mereka tidak benar-
benar unggul dalam satu bidang. Akan tetapi dalam penggunaan kontemporer, bagian kedua dari frasa
sering dihilangkan dan “jack of all trades” biasanya dipandang positif.
Misalkan kalian memiliki seorang teman yang dapat memperbaiki komputer, memasak hidangan
gourmet, menulis puisi yang indah, dan juga tahu banyak tentang berkebun. Kalian bisa berkata, “My
friend is a real jack of all trades. There’s almost nothing they can’t do!”

8. Playing with fire

Jika seseorang mengatakan kalian sedang “playing with fire”, jangan panik memeriksa apakah ada api!
Ungkapan ini biasanya bukan tentang api sungguhan. Sebaliknya, adalah cara untuk mengatakan bahwa
seseorang mengambil risiko yang tidak perlu atau bertindak dengan cara yang dapat menimbulkan
konsekuensi berbahaya.

“Playing with fire” merujuk pada mempermainkan bahaya yang terkandung dalam bermain api secara
harfiah. Diakui secara universal bahwa tindakan seperti itu dapat dengan mudah lepas kendali dan
menyebabkan cedera atau kehancuran, bukan? Nah, idiom tadi menerapkan alasan yang sama untuk
menunjukkan tindakan yang membawa risiko

Bayangkan seorang teman sedang mempertimbangkan untuk menginvestasikan seluruh tabungan


hidupnya ke dalam usaha bisnis yang sangat berisiko dan tidak stabil. Kalian bisa memperingatkan
mereka dengan mengatakan, “I think you’re playing with fire if you put all your money into that
company.”

9. Draw the line

Pernah mengalami saat di mana kalian perlu berkata, “Enough is enough!” ?

Mungkin pada seseorang yang terus meminjam pakaian tanpa permisi, atau mungkin tetangga
yang ngotot untuk membunyikan musik yang sangat keras setelah tengah malam.

Nah, ketika memutuskan ada batasan toleransi, saat itulah kalian dikatakan “draw the line”.

Kalian mungkin berpikir, “Draw the line? What, like drawing a sketch?”

Tapi tidak, jangan mengobrak-abrik alat gambar! Frasa ini bukan tentang gambar yang sebenarnya. Ini
tentang menetapkan batasan dan jarak.

Asal usul idiom diyakini berasal dari olahraga, di mana ungkapan “line” dalam arti sebenarnya, ditarik
untuk menunjukkan batas atau titik awal. Dalam konteks yang lebih luas, “draw the line” mengacu pada
penetapan batasan atau standar perilaku yang jelas.

Berikut contoh lain tentang kapan menggunakan idiom ini. Bayangkan kalian yang bersedia bekerja
lembur sesekali, tetapi tidak setiap akhir pekan. Kalian bisa berkata, “I don’t mind working late
sometimes, but I draw the line at giving up my weekends.”

10. Ring a bell

Ungkapan “ring a bell” digunakan ketika sesuatu terdengar akrab atau kalian merasa pernah
mendengarnya sebelumnya, tetapi tidak dapat mengingat detailnya. Ini sering digunakan ketika sebuah
nama, lagu, frasa, atau situasi samar-samar kalian kenal.
Ungkapan tersebut mungkin berasal dari asosiasi lonceng dengan mendapatkan perhatian atau memicu
memori, seperti bel sekolah atau jam alarm akan mengingatkan tentang sesuatu yang perlu kalian
lakukan. Idiom ini mulai digunakan pada tahun 1930-an.

Misalkan teman kalian berbicara tentang restoran baru di kota dan meskipun kalian tidak ingat semua
detailnya, nama itu terdengar familiar. Kalian bisa mengatakan, “I’m not sure, but the name of that
restaurant rings a bell.”
