глаголIdiomInformal

an instance or gesture that indicates approval or satisfaction

What is the origin of the idiom "thumbs up" and when to use it?

The idiom "thumbs up" has its origin in ancient Roman culture, where a thumbs up gesture was used as a sign of approval or agreement. Gladiatorial contests in ancient Rome often involved life-or-death situations, and the crowd would signal their preference for the fate of the defeated combatant. A thumbs up indicated that the crowd wished the gladiator to be spared, while a thumbs down meant a fatal blow. Over time, the thumbs up gesture evolved into a universally recognized sign of positive affirmation or approval.

What is the origin of the idiom "thumbs down" and when to use it?

The idiom "thumbs down" originated from ancient Roman culture. When gladiators fought to the death in arenas, the crowd would use gestures to indicate if a defeated gladiator should live or die. Thrusting a thumb downward meant death, so over time this expression came to symbolize disapproval or a negative judgment.
