Pull Someone’s Leg
Welcome to English in a Minute.
In conversations, it is very common to pull someone’s leg.
I’m not joking.
To Pull Someone’s Leg
I forgot to water Ashley’s plant and it died.
She comes back tomorrow.
What should I do?
Okay. Go to the plant store and buy Plant-Don’t-Die.
Mix it with Green Bean Cola and pour it on the plant.
It will come back to life in no time.
Right!
Wait a minute.
You’re pulling my leg.
There’s no such thing as Green Bean Cola.
To pull someone’s leg means to joke with someone.
pulling someone’s leg is lighthearted and not mean-spirited.
Jonathan pulled Anna’s leg when he said “Green Bean Cola” and a product called “Plant-Don’t-Die” would save my dead plant.
Sadly, Anna did not fully understand his joke.
And that’s English in a Minute.
