🐷 When Pigs Fly — Daily English Idiom #32
Ep #32 teaches "when pigs fly" — something that will never happen; used to dismiss an impossibility with humour — through three 4:5 flat-illustration cards: a comedic literal scene of chubby winged pigs soaring through the sky, a bold eggplant-purple definition card with plain-English meaning, and a mint-green scenario card showing Alex and Sam in an office dialogue where the idiom is highlighted in electric blue.
🐷 When Pigs Fly — the ultimate English brush-off.
You ask for something ridiculous. Someone says this. End of discussion.
What it means:
Something that will never happen — said with a wink, not a shout.
Hear it in real life:
Alex: "Do you think the boss will ever approve remote Fridays?" Sam: "When pigs fly! He barely lets us leave early on holidays."
