mmm, the last I can't translate. Sinker in fishermans tongue being? ...

And shouldn't it been mrs hook and mrs sinker then?

[Drogue]

Geo: A common English idiom when someone takes the bait particularly well is "hook, line and sinker", refering to fishing, where they not only took the bait, they swallowed the hook, the line and the sinker too.

He's implementing you in my posting, HongHu

How do one implement somebody in somebody else's posting? There are many times that I realize that I really don't have an IQ of 180.

[Jamski]

I'm implementing you that this was intended.

O, I had no trouble understanding the idiom, but I'm not sure what 'sinker' means exactly, that's all. Is it the thingy that floats on the waterline and goes under when a fish takes the bait?

[Ouro_827]

Alrightly then! You've failed survival! The train to land of the dead leaves in twenty five minutes, simply take a right down on 43rd, and then the second left. A SINKER does what it says.... sinks. You use it to make your hooks drop in the ocean.

[Drogue]

Ouro is right. A sinker is a (usually lead, IIRC) weight that makes the hook sink.

Is this a non-issue yet?
