Real English 47-big on
Recently, because she doesn't want to catch a cold, my DW is big on gargling and washing her hands with special disinfectant soap.
"big on" means "to really be picky about something" or "to really like something a lot."
"not big on" means "to not like something so much" or "to not be picky, to not care, about something so much"
Other things she is "big on", and "not big on" are the following:
She is real big on sweets, cleaning, and doing the laundry!! (Just like her mother...)
She isn't too big on cats or smokey restaurants.
As far as I am concerned, bad service is unacceptable so I am real big on customer service.
In general, I am also big on greetings, for example, saying "Good morning" or "Good afternoon" or something like that every time you see someone.
When I am relaxing at home, I am not too big on the sound of the vacuum...
I am also not too big on tardiness or disorganization.
My brother is crazy big on fitness. And that makes sense, because he is a personal trainer. On the other hand, he isn't too big on slackers.
When I was a child, my mother was big on education, which I can understand because she is a teacher.
And when I was younger, to be exact when I was twenty-something, she wasn't too big on my shaved head and go-tee.
My father is and has always been big on being honest, and always telling the truth. However, he isn't too big on Japanese-style pasta with shavings of dried seaweed on top.
What are you "big on"?
What are you "not too big on"?
And to change the subject, I wrote about the below restaurant a few months ago on the blog. Do you remember? The ham-cutlet and sliced beef is to die for!!
