Share Us With an Idiom, a Proverb, a Slang Word or an Expression
; ) Greetings**
First, I haven't seen any topics in the EC regarding the English Idioms or Slang Words so far, so I thought it'd be very useful for all of us to have this sort of topics...
Surely sharing what we know about slang words or idioms would broaden our horizons and make us much closer to the daily terms and expressions which are largely used in the English speaking communities.,,
In this topic, just share us anything you know about slang words or idiomatic expressions, explain its meaning and give an instance if possible or at least, just read and enjoy
Thanks for participation in advance and I hope you'll enjoy ***

hello......really it's a great idea bro thanx very much
glued to your seat
*To be extremely interested in something; to be so involved with something that you cannot move.
e.g. As soon as the movie started, Holly was glued to her seat.
Etymology:
'Glue' is a sticky substance that holds things together, so if you are 'glued to your seat' you are stuck in your chair due to your great interest in what you are seeing or hearing.
