| Phrase | a few too many |
| Text | In this podcast, the phrase "a few too many" means too many or more of something than one should have or do, especially referring to how much alcohol someone has drunk: "Give me your keys. You've had a few too many, so I'm going to give you a ride home tonight." Or, "Nila has seen a few too many romantic comedies and she doesn't realize what a real-world romance is like." The phrase "few and far between" describes something that is rare, unusual, and hard to find: "Dedicated employees like Hannah are few and far between." Finally, the phrase "no fewer than" is used to emphasize that a number is very large: "I must have called you no fewer than 20 times last night. Where were you?" |
