Question

Any big night out begins at home with popular clothes! When you are dressed to the nines, it means that you are wearing some popular clothes. For example, you might say, “If we’re going to the party, we’d better get dressed to the nines!”

You may want to start the night with a quick dinner at a restaurant. We call it “grab (攫取) a bite to eat”. For example, your friend might ask you, “Do you want to grab a bite to eat before we go out?”

Early evening is a great time to pay a visit to the cinema and see the latest big movie. We say that we are going to catch a flick when we are going to watch a movie. For example, your friends may say, “Let’s go and catch a flick at the cinema tonight!”
