Veronica Baig said...

ALEXEY: You have the correct meaning, but there is a problem with how you are asking the question;-)

In Canada, in the early morning of April 1st, (fool day), telling or discussing with close friends and associates of intended lies are common. The unsuspected close friends will believe you until you later reveal to them that you are just pulling their legs because of the April fool day.

1. You cannot mean that you don’t understand my English accent; or are you pulling my leg?
2. If we keep changing the original building plan, the costs will go up and the building is going to cost us an arm and a leg.
3. You claim that this land is yours, but you have no leg to stand one; I can prove that it is owned by my neighbour.

SARA:All three--well done!
ALEXEY: Good, but in the first example, you needed to change "do" to "are";-)
