TODAY'S IDIOM: GOING DOWN

"GOING DOWN"

If you know what's going down, you know what's happening in a situation.

Example: A young guy ran over and said, "You know what's going down? I heard some gunshots and just now I saw these guys running from over that way."

Lo que está pasando.

Example sentences:

• If you need someone who knows what's going down in the world of youth fashion, you need a young person, not a middle-aged executive /  Si necesitas a alguien que sepa lo que está pasando en el mundo de la moda, necesitas a una persona joven, no a un ejecutivo de mediana edad.

• As soon as I know what's going down, I'll let you know / Tan pronto como sepa que está pasando, te lo haré saber.

Additional examples:

• Hey, we just got here! What's going down? What does it look like? This is a party, dude!

• "A collection of memorable pieces about the general craziness that was going down in those days"- James Atlas.
