Hi guys, I had to participate a long time ago cuz it is a nice topic!

Here is an idiom:
My boss is rather a cold fish. I don't even know if he likes me or not.
What does "a cold fish" mean?
With regards *ورود

Raghad,  
Well, in fact you get it right.
Let me explain:
"Cold fish" means that the person described shows no sympathy or fear.

Oxford dictionary says:
"a cold fish: a person who seems unfriendly and without strong emotions."

A new one:
He finally arrived safe and sound last week.

What does "safe and sound" mean? *ممم
Raghad,  
One last thing: Don't overuse "that" in a sentence; it will be redundant. :wink:

Common guys, it is not that difficult, common.

Any way, I will give you the explanation tommorrow, Insha'llah.  :wink:
But try on it, ok?  *Hi
