Hi Be Fluent followers 😊
Have you ever had to 'buy time'?
Buy time?!
Time isn't something that we can buy!
You're absolutely right!
But native English speakers use this idiom: 'To buy time' to mean doing something that allows you to have more time to finish something else.
e.g.
He tried to buy time by saying he wasn't feeling well.
Okay!
Now, can you think of any situation when you had to 'buy time'?
Have you ever tried to buy time?
If so, let us know what happened, in the comment section, and what you did in order to buy time.
How did it go? Did it turn out well?
Thank you!😊

Tips on How to Answer Challenging Interview Questions:
Question # 1:
What do you consider your strengths and weaknesses?
Strengths= strong points, things you’re good at. نقاط القوة
Weaknesses= weak points, things you're not good at نقاط الضعف
For this question, you need to mention your professional strengths and your professional weaknesses.
a- Strengths:
I'm a goal-oriented person who works at a fast pace.
اهتم بتحقيق الاهداف و انجاز العمل سريعا
b- Weaknesses: (Tricky part )
Remember that while mentioning your weaknesses you need to turn them into strengths to show that even your weaknesses would be advantageous to the organization:
Therefore, the interviewee needs to show:
1- You're keen to Improve those weaknesses and work on them
كيفية تحسين نقاط الضعف
and
2- Mention how you manage your weak points.
For example, how do you work with your team members to reduce the effect of those weaknesses?
كيفية التعاون مع فريق العمل للتخفيف من اثار نقاط ضعفك
I'm very detail-oriented, however I work at a fast pace.
اهتم جدا بالتفاصيل و و مع ذلك اعمل / انجز العمل بسرعة
Another professional weakness, for instance, could be that you're shy and this causes your inability to start communicating.
Sometimes I can be a bit shy but recently I’ve been focusing on myself and trying very hard to start conversations.
احيانا اكون خجول لكنني اركز و احاول بجدية أن اكون من يبدأ الحوار
That's it for today. Thank you and see you in part 2!:)

So, now we know the meaning of the idiom.
To make it easier for you to remember this meaning, let's have a look at the origin of this idiom:
To 'Hear Something Straight From the Horse's Mouth' is believed to have originated from the world of horse racing where getting accurate information about the horse should be straight from the horse's trainer or owner, who would have the most accurate and reliable information about the horse's abilities, condition, and potential performance in a race.
The horse's trainer or owner could tell everything about the horse, including its age, health condition, and abilities from its teeth.
Over time, the phrase has come to be used to indicate receiving information directly from a primary knowledgeable source.
More examples:
