N/A
to get ready for trouble, difficulty, or danger
The idiom "batten down the hatches" has its origins in maritime terminology. "Hatches" are the openings in the deck of a ship that provide access to the lower levels. "Battening down" means to secure the hatches with wooden strips or battens to prevent water from entering the ship during a storm. Figuratively, this expression is used to mean preparing for a difficult or challenging situation, taking precautions, or getting ready for an upcoming storm or crisis.
N/A
to cause significant damage or destruction to something by subjecting it to intense heat or fire
The idiom "burn something to a crisp" likely originates from the visual and descriptive imagery of something being completely incinerated or reduced to ashes or cinders after a fire. It is used metaphorically to describe a situation where something has been thoroughly and excessively burnt, often signifying an irreparable state of damage or destruction.
