#English Study#Idiom: On Pins and Needles. Pins and needles are small, sharp, thin metal objects often used when sewing. If someone is on pins and needles, they are very nervous or anxious. It is usually used to describe someone who is waiting to hear news about something really important to them. It is hard to relax if you are “on pins and needles.”Here is an example: “Jeremy was on pins and needles waiting to find out if he got into his dream college. He could hardly sit still!” Tell us about a time you were on pins and needles! #AmericanEnglish#
