Why we say this? | Idiomatic Expressions #1

Olá, olá!
Bem-vindos ao meu podcast!


Hoje eu vou falar sobre uma expressão idiomática que é bastante curiosa e um pouco engraçada...
👉 "Bater a bota"


"Bater a bota" é uma expressão informal que significa… literalmente morrer.
Sim, quando alguém bate a bota, quer dizer que essa pessoa morreu.


Há várias teorias, mas uma das mais populares tem a ver com os soldados ou os trabalhadores rurais que sempre usavam botas enquanto trabalhavam.


Quando morriam, as botas caíam — ou neste caso, “batiam” no chão.

Sim... isto é um pouco sinistro mas hoje em dia usamos a expressão com mais leveza (softness) e quase sempre com algum humor negro.


Esta expressão é usada de forma informal, neste caso muitas vezes em brincadeira. Não se deve usar em situações sérias.


Se falas inglês, talvez conheças a expressão "kick the bucket".
Que é exatamente a mesma coisa!


Morrer — mas dito de uma forma informal e até um pouco engraçada.


Recapitulando : "Bater a bota" = morrer.


Usa sempre em conversas descontraídas, mas não nunca em situações tristes ou formais.

E por hoje é tudo!
e até à próxima…
Antes que eu bata a bota! .... (brincadeira!!!!)
