TODAY'S IDIOM: KEEP YOUR NOSE CLEAN

"KEEP YOUR NOSE CLEAN"



If you keep your nose clean, you stay out of trouble by making sure you don't do anything wrong.

Example: It's important for sport's stars to keep their noses clean because they make a lot of money for endorsing products, and they could lose this income if they got into trouble with the law.

No metas las narices.

Example sentences:

  • Our son Michael is in trouble with the police again. I really wish he'd learn to keep his nose clean / Nuestro hijo Michael está en problemas con la policía de nuevo. Realmente me gustaría que aprendiera a no meter sus narices.

  • If George doesn't keep his nose clean he'll go to jail / Si George no deja de meter sus narices, irá a la cárcel.

Additional examples:

  •  I'm trying to keep my nose clean by staying away from those rough guys.

  • John, if you don't learn how to keep your nose clean, you're going to end up in jail.
