Here is another question. I don't know what this sentence means. Need your help.
--Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Thank you!
Basically, don't be negative or critical about a present given to you.
That's right.
The way to tell the age of a horse is to look at its teeth.
So, if someone gives you a present, you should not look critically at it, but simply accept it with thanks. That's good manners.
Thank you!
Now I get it.
Thank you very much for your help!
