Ovqat idiomalari ingliz tilidagi eng "mazali" iboralar: a piece of cake — juda oson, spill the beans — sirni ochib qo‘ymoq, bread and butter — asosiy daromad manbai. Ularning ma’nosi taomdan emas, vaziyatdan kelib chiqadi, shuning uchun so‘zma-so‘z tarjima qilmang.
Hoziroq bitta gap: The test was a piece of cake! Imtihon, vazifa yoki yangi ilova haqida shunday deyishingiz mumkin. Ibora norasmiy, do‘stlar orasida juda tabiiy.
Quyida har bir idiomaning ma’nosi, o‘zbek hayotidan misol va uslub belgisi bor. Eskirgan deb belgilanganlarini tanib olsangiz yetarli.
Oson, qiyin va chigal
| Idioma | Ma’nosi | Misol | Uslub |
|---|---|---|---|
| a piece of cake | juda oson | The first listening part was a piece of cake. | norasmiy |
| a hot potato | hamma chetlab o‘tadigan og‘ir masala | Rising electricity prices became a political hot potato. | neytral, yangiliklarda |
| in a pickle | chigal, noqulay vaziyatda | I lost my passport in Istanbul and was in a real pickle. | norasmiy, biroz eski |
| half-baked | chala o‘ylangan | Selling ice cream in January is a half-baked idea. | norasmiy |
| have your cake and eat it | ikki bir-birini inkor qiladigan narsani birdan istamoq | You want a high salary and no overtime? You can’t have your cake and eat it. | norasmiy |
| cry over spilt milk | bo‘lib o‘tgan ishga kuyinmoq | The exam is over. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. | neytral |
Bu yerda ikki o‘zbekcha juftlik bor. A piece of cake ga "suv ichgandek oson" yaqin, It’s no use crying over spilt milk ning esa aniq egizagi bor: "O‘tgan ishga salovat".
Sir, gap va xushomad
| Idioma | Ma’nosi | Misol | Uslub |
|---|---|---|---|
| spill the beans | sirni ochib qo‘ymoq | My little sister spilled the beans about the surprise party. | norasmiy |
| butter someone up | biror narsa olish uchun xushomad qilmoq | He’s buttering up the teacher before the exam. | norasmiy |

| food for thought | o‘ylab ko‘rishga arziydigan fikr | The lecture on AI gave me food for thought. | neytral, yozuvda ham |
Spill the beans ga o‘zbekcha "og‘zidan gullab qo‘ymoq" juda mos. Butter someone up ning esa qiziq egizagi bor: "tilyog‘lamalik". Ikkala tilda ham yog‘ xushomadni bildiradi. Sour grapes Ezopning tulki va uzum haqidagi masalidan kelgan. Bu masal va boshqalar inglizcha ertaklar tarjimasi bilan sahifasida.
Ish, pul va odamlar
| Idioma | Ma’nosi | Misol | Uslub |
|---|---|---|---|
| bread and butter | asosiy daromad manbai | Wedding photos are the bread and butter of his studio. | neytral |

| not my cup of tea | menga yoqmaydi | Horror films aren’t my cup of tea. | neytral, muloyim |
Sell like hot cakes o‘zbekchada deyarli so‘zma-so‘z bor: "issiq nondek sotilmoq". Bread and butter uchun esa "nonini shu ishdan topadi" deymiz.
His va xarakter
| Idioma | Ma’nosi | Misol | Uslub |
|---|---|---|---|
| (as) cool as a cucumber | juda xotirjam | In the speaking exam she was as cool as a cucumber. | norasmiy |
| go bananas | juda hayajonlanmoq yoki jahli chiqmoq | The fans went bananas when Uzbekistan scored. | norasmiy, slengga yaqin |
