Hey everyone!

I have another quick English phrase for you today

!

The phrase is “cut corners” this means to do something the easiest, quickest, or cheapest way while ignoring rules or standards that are set.

Example: They really cut corners when they built this bathroom. The sink is already leaking.

If you found this helpful or interesting please throw a like or comment below!

Thanks guys!
