What expressions or words do you use when it ´s really hot and you can hardly stand it?
|
|
When I was in England a couple of weeks ago, I realized I didn �t know what expressions or words I could use to express that sensation. What do native people say in that situation?
Thanks for your help
Yolanda
I guess there are a lot |

I would say "It �s boiling" ("I �m boiling") or "It �s scorching". |

Hi Yolanda, the use of "It �s baking today" is quite common in the UK I �ve also heard New Yorkers refer to a stifling day as "a dog day" as in �dog days of summer � or �Dog Day Afternoon" a classic movie starring Al Pacino |

It �s so hot you could fry an egg on the sidewalk.
It �s a scorcher.
