Ins and Outs

Ins and Outs

Welcome to English in a Minute.

When you’re unfamiliar with a situation,

you might not always know this:

The Ins and Outs

When do you leave for Munich?

Next Wednesday.

I have a friend there who knows all the

ins and outs of the city.

It’s always a good idea to have a guide

who knows the ins and outs of a new city…

where you could get lost for days…

Anyway, I can’t wait to eat all the best food,

see all the best museums

and most importantly…

find the best karaoke places.

To know the ins and outs of something

means you are very familiar

with the details of something.

The phrase ‘ins and outs’ comes from

the possible dangerous twists and turns

In a road or path.

And that’s English in a Minute.
