💅 4 English Corporate Idioms Visualised under 20 Seconds

@ybeymlina spent a year in the US on a Fulbright scholarship and witnessed it firsthand: idioms're everywhere. And especially in US business talk, more than in the UK, Australia, or non-English-speaking countries. Business meetings, emails, and even job descriptions are full of them

Why do companies use them?
To sound casual & confident – Idioms make speech faster and more "friendly"
To create group identity – If you understand them, you "fit in"

The problem is international teams get lost. Non-native speakers often:
❌ Misunderstand idioms literally ("Why are we boiling the ocean?!")
❌ Feel left out in fast conversations
❌ Waste time Googling phrases instead of focusing on work

We fix this problem so you don't get lost, stand out, and fit in

The Corporate Figurative Meaning of 4 Literal Phrases

🫧Throw spaghetti on the wall, see what sticks – Try many ideas and see what works

🫧Pie chart vs. bar graph

🥧 Pie chart – Circle, Shows parts of a whole (like slices of a pie)
📊 Bar graph – Compares different amounts using bars

🫧Drop the ball – Make a mistake or fail to do something

🫧Address the elephant in the room – Talk about an obvious problem everyone ignores
