Being Late Idioms

[Yuliana Bagan]

Hi,

This week, let’s practice the following idioms about being late:

1. It’s never too late to learn
2. A day late and a dollar short
3. Better late than never
4. Late in life
5. Sooner or later

Do you agree that it’s never too late to learn? When was the last time you were a day late and a dollar short? Describe the situation to show the meaning in context.

I started with many things quite late in life but I don’t regret them. It’s better late than never! And it’s never too late to learn something new. I should strive to seek good knowledge. Sooner or later we all have to perish. What a life if not reached, its optimum but wasted in futile acts and thoughts. Better to realize this early than to be a day late and a dollar short!
