Zapraszamy do krótkiego, ale ciekawego podcastu, wyjaśniającego znaczenie idiomu BUMP INTO SOMEONE/SOMETHING.
To bump into something means to collide with something, or to knock against something. But in colloquial speech, it also means to meet someone unexpectedly.
For instance. Today I went to the supermarket. Unfortunately, as I was parking my car, I bumped into a lamp-post. When I went into the supermarket, I bumped into Harry Johnson. I hadn’t seen him for years, so we had a long chat beside the cat food.
Now a joke.
A short-sighted man walked into a supermarket.
Guess who he bumped into?
EVERYBODY!
