β³οΈ much ado about nothing
π Meaning:
If you say something is much ado about nothing, you think it's an overreaction to something that shouldn't have caused so much trouble.
βοΈ For example:
πΊSome people make a big fuss about which table they get in a restaurant, but as far as I can see it's much ado about nothing as long as the food's the same.
πΊAll this nonsense about status and "losing face" is much ado about nothing as far as I'm concerned.
βοΈ Origin: "Much Ado about Nothing" is the title of a well-known play by William Shakespeare, and as a result the phrase has survived into modern English in its original form.

β Common mistakes β
β¬οΈ Loan or Borrow
βExample Mistake: Can you borrow me that book? You can loan me my notes.
Tip: The listener may be confused since βloanβ means βto giveβ and βborrowβ means βto take.β Itβs simple memorization thatβs required to get the correct meaning.
For example, βborrow me that bookβ means βtake me that bookβ in the above example. Where do you want the listener to take the book? That isnβt what you meant to say!
Instead, you would like to use the book, so you want someone to give it to you.
β Correction: Can you loan me that book? You can borrow my notes.
______________________
β¬οΈ Since or For
βExample Mistake: I have known him for always. I saw him since last year.
Tip: You use βforβ if you donβt have to calculate the period of time, because the amount of time is indicated in the sentence already. You use βsinceβ if you have to calculate the period of time, because you only have the starting point.
β Correction: I have lived here for two months. (You donβt have to calculate, you know the period is βtwo months.β ) / I have lived here since 1975. (You have to calculate now. If you came in 1975βthe starting pointβand now itβs 2016.)
