Do you know how to use a dictionary to find out the meanings of idiomatic expressions? Take, for example, the expression caught my eye in the story. Where - under which word - would you look for it in the dictionary?
Look for it under the first word. But if the first word is a grammatical word like \( a \), the, for, etc., then take the next word. That is, look for the first meaningful word in the expression. In our example, it is the word caught. But you wont find caught in the dictionary, because it is the past tense of catch. Youll find caught listed under catch. So you must look under catch for the expression caught my eye. Which other expressions with catch are listed in your dictionary?
