Idiom Focus: Animal Idioms 18

Every Saturday I’ll give you a couple of idioms to learn. An idiom is a saying or phrase whose meaning cannot be taken from the literal meanings of the words.

in a pig’s eye:    hardly, unlikely, not so

Example:  

Bob pay for dinner?  In a pig’s eye!  If I were you, I’d take some money, because you’ll no doubt have to pay your own way.

in the doghouse:    in disgrace or disfavor

Example:  

Marty couldn’t make it to our weekly poker game.  He’s in the doghouse because he didn’t take care of his “honey-do” list last weekend.
