Welcome to English in a Minute from home.
Many animals have teeth and nails, but what does it mean to fight tooth and nail?
Jonathan, did you see that email from Simone?
She did not get the manager's position.
What?
She fought tooth and nail for that job.
Well, she may have fought hard for it, but she didn't get it.
Ouch.
When you fight tooth and nail, you fight hard.
You try your best to win and don't give up.
