    11:50 I loved "walking on eggshells"!!
    in Turkish, we similarly say "diken üstünde yürümek" which means "walking on thorns"
    or, "mayın tarlasında yürümek" which is "to walk on a minefield" same meaning!
    there's also "ip üstünde yürümek" which means "to walk on a string" but it means more like you're in danger 😅

    To the 'people' who disliked this video, due to some changes in UA-cam , you can now see the names of the people who disliked a video.

    Thanks a lot! 👍🙂 Lucy, may I ask you for adding videos with words-synonyms, but which can be used in different contexts for more advanced learners (remote, distant, far etc.) . Thanks!
