6 Business English idioms you need to know!
1. A long shot
This phrase comes from sports, like basketball for example when a player is trying to shoot from a long distance. It means something unlikely to happen. With very little chance of success.
Example: Getting a senior position in the corporation one day is a long shot, but if you don’t try you’ll never find out if it’s possible.
2. Back to the drawing board
This expression means to start something again from the beginning because it’s not working as you would have liked or expected.
Example: This project is not going as planned, let’s get back to the drawing board and fix what’s going wrong.
3. To corner the market
To control enough quantity of a product or service that enables one to then change the market price willingly. It can also mean to be the only one making or providing a given product or service.
Example: Intel has pretty much cornered the market of microprocessors for servers. Their direct competition, AMD, is a distant second.
4. Hands are tied
When you are unable to carry out any meaningful action because of regulations, rules or other people with authority.
Example: I wish I could help you cut through all this red tape (another business idiom meaning administrative procedures) but my hands are tied. My boss won’t let me.
5. Up in the air
When things are highly uncertain when a decision has not been made yet.
Example: We were hoping to sign the contract by the end of the month, but there are still too many things up in the air we need to deal with first.
6. To learn the ropes
To learn the basics of a profession, a specific task or activity.
Example: It took her a while to learn the ropes, but now she is confident and we feel that we can count on her to manage her client portfolio effectively.

تنها پستاندار پرنده
The bat is the only mammal that can actually fly. Other animals that give the appearance of flying, like flying squirrels, are just gliding through the air.
خفاش تنها پستانداری است که می‌تواند واقعا پرواز کند، حیوانات دیگری که به ظاهر پرواز میکنند، همانند سنجاب پرنده فقط در هوا سُر می‌خوردند.

واژگان بخش اول اسپیکینگ آیلتس:Hometown
What is it like where you live?
Well, I live in Toronto, which is a quite cosmopolitan city in Canada. You can see people from different ethic backgrounds, from all over the world. It is also a very vibrant city. There are a lot of artists, art galleries, and museums.
Where I live is a very lively place. People are always excited on the street, and bars are always packed. But sometimes, I feel it is a bit too hectic on holidays.
I live in the suburbs. It is kind of a rural area. There are a lot of farms, and some of the buildings are run-down. But it is a close-knit community.
I live in a residential area, in a town, in India. It is kind of an old city, really. A lot of buildings are run-down, but we have got some quaint shops.
Could you tell me a bit more about your hometown?
My hometown is located in Italy. It is a sprawling city, so it takes a while to get around in it. But it has developed better public transport recently.
My hometown, Tokyo, is a huge metropolitan city. People there are very urban, and there are a lot of contemporary stores. It is also a very touristic city. You can see tourists all the time.
Words to describe the city:
Cosmopolitan: including people from many different countries.
Urban: in, relating to, or characteristic of a city.
Bustling: (of a place) full of activity.
Lively: full of life and energy; active and outgoing.
Hectic: very busy and fast.
Vibrant: full of energy, color, and life.
Sprawling: spreading out over a large area in an untidy or irregular way.
Contemporary: existing and happening now.
Touristic: relating to or popular with tourists.
Words to describe the town/countryside:
Rural: in, relating to, or characteristic of a countryside.
Run-down: weak or in a bad condition.
Quaint: attractively unusual or old-fashioned.
Close-knit: bound together by strong relationships and common interests.

Imagin Dragons- Demons
When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold
وقتى روزها سرد هستن و
ورق ها برگشتن
و همه ى افراد مقدسى كه ميبينيم
از طلا ساخته شدن
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale
وقتى همه ى روياهات شكست ميخورن
و اونهايى كه باهاشون سلام ميكنيم
بدترين ها هستن
و خون جارى شده كهنه شده
I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide
ميخوام حقيقت رو پنهون كنم
ميخوام سر پناهت باشم
اما با اين هيولاى درونم
هيچ جا نداريم كه پنهون بشيم
1 ( No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come ) 1
مهم نيست كه چى به دست مياريم
بازم وجودمون پر از طمعه
اينجا قلمرو پادشاهى منه ، بيا
2 ( When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide ) 2
وقتى گرماى وجودمو حس كردى
به چشمام نگاه كن
اينجا همونجاييه كه شياطين وجودم پنهون ميشن
خيلى بهم نزديك نشو
درونم تاريكه
اينجا همونجاييه كه شياطين وجودم قايم شدن
At the curtain's call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl
تو قسمت پايان نمايش
كه آخرينه ، وقتى نور صحنه خاموش ميشه
همه ى گناهكارا سينه خير خارج ميشن
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made
اونها گورت رو ميكنن
تو همون بالماسكه ى مسخره
و ميون همون خرابكارى هايى كه كردى
ميان صدات ميكنن
Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth
نميخوام نا اميدت كنم
اما من به جهنم گره خوردم
اگرچه همه ى اينها بخاطر تو ست
نميخوام حقيقت رو پنهون كنم
Repeat - 1
Repeat - 2
They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go
اونها ميگن همه چيز همونه كه خودت ميسازى
من ميگم همه چى به سرنوشت مربوطه
اين باور تو روحم تار و پود تنيده
بايد بذارم برى
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how
چشمهات مثل نور ميدرخشن
ميخوام اون نور رو حفظ كنم
الان ديگه نميتونم ازش فرار كنم
مگه اينكه تو راهشو بهم نشون بدى
Repeat - 2
