Welcome to English in a Minute.
Pockets are super useful. They can hold things like money. But how does money burn a hole in your pocket? Let’s listen.
To Burn a Hole in Your Pocket 一有钱就花
Dan:Guess what, Anna? I won $500 last week!
Anna:That’s great! Dan, remember to save some of it.
Dan:I spent it.
Anna:What? All of it?
Dan:That money was burning a hole in my pocket.
Anna:Oh, Dan, that is why you never have money.
This expression is about one thing... money! If someone says money is burning a hole in their pocket, it means they want to spend it right away. Some people, like Dan, have a hard time saving money instead of spending it.
And that’s English in a Minute!
