Hello everyone out there,
How are you all doing today?
Welcome back again to another chapter of “Free 30-day Vocabulary Acquisition Course” where you’ll learn something new every day about a topic with context and examples, and so will you today.
So without further ado, let’s get down to the business and pick some vocabulary out of the given context:
Context
I never skip running in the morning as it has many health benefits. It has been almost 5 years now since I started doing it. Though there are many places to go, I usually go to a park which is just a few steps away from my home.
This Thursday was no different.
I was resting after running ten rounds in the park when I saw a man in a black hoodie and ripped blue jeans trying to hide something. He had an unusual personality and one can clearly tell from his appearance that he was up to no good.
I went close to him jogging, so he could not figure out that I was observing him.
But before I could reach him, within a few steps he suddenly jumped off the wall of the park and disappeared.
I tried to find and catch him, but he was gone.
Did you ever see someone and felt that they were up to no good?
Of course, you must have.
Many times our senses about the person who is up to no good help us avoiding the upcoming danger.
So I guess, by now you know what it means today’s expression.
Well, in case you didn’t get the meaning till now, here it is-
To be up to no good
Meaning: To be planning or involved in something bad, mischievous.
Example: I saw a man following her in the park today. I can say for sure he was up to no good.
