Idiom

What is the origin of the idiom "make a beeline for somebody or something" and when to use it?

The idiom "make a beeline for somebody or something" originates from the behavior of bees. They typically follow a straight line or path, known as a "beeline," to reach their destination quickly. The term 'beeline' itself emerged in the 19th century and was influenced by the observation of bees' flight paths. It became a metaphorical expression to describe a direct and straight route taken by someone or something. It is commonly used in informal contexts to describe someone's direct and swift movement towards a particular person or object. It implies a sense of urgency, eagerness, or strong interest in reaching the target.
