Tip of the Week: Today, we take a look at the start of the FIFA World Cup, but this phrase doesn’t even have to be used in a sports situation. This week’s phrase is: “It’s a whole new ballgame.”

This phrase means being in a situation you’re not familiar with. For example, a business person now needing to teach young students in the classroom might say: “I’m used to working with adults, but these kids are a whole new ballgame.”

Try using this phrase in your daily conversations and enjoy the World Cup!
