| Idiom | See Eye to Eye |
|---|---|
| Example | My parents and I don't always see eye to eye about my allowance. |
| Meaning | to agree fully; to have the same opinion |
| Origin | This expression can be found in the Bible (Isaiah 52:8). Imagine two people, side by side, watching the same thing. Since they have the same view in mind, and since they're eye to eye (right next to each other), they will probably agree on what they're both experiencing. In the same way, people on opposite sides of the world can see "eye to eye" on an issue if they both think the same way about it. |
