I would like to rewrite your title to "help me with an idiom", do you agree with me?     Ivantalk Joined on Tue, Jan 17 2006 QuanZhou, Fujian Province, China New Member 33 Have your heard of HuaQiao University?

	Clive  +  260638 Tue, 29 Aug 06 06:25 PM Hi, Welcome to the Forum. what does mean:    "talk to the hand" Picture this. You are talking to someone. They show you that they do not want to listen to you, by holding up their hand so that you can not see their face while you are talking. Someone did this to me the other day, for the first time. It's very rude, of course. It was surprisingly annoying. Instead of actually doing the gesture, people sometimes say these words. You can read more about this at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_to_the_hand Best wishes, Clive Clive Joined on Thu, Oct 28 2004 Canada Veteran Member 29,583 El tango argentino es un pensamiento triste que se puede bailar (The tango argentino is a sad thought which can be danced) Enrique Santos Discépolo
