PHRASES
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
A bunch of fives
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link
A change is as good as a rest
A countenance more in sorrow than in anger
A Daniel come to judgement
A diamond in the rough
A diamond is forever
A different kettle of fish
A dish fit for the gods
A dog is a man's best friend
A drop in the bucket
A drop in the ocean
A fate worse than death
A feather in one's cap
A fish rots from the head down
A fish out of water
A fly in the ointment
A fool and his money are soon parted
A fool's paradise
A foot in the door
A foregone conclusion
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A golden key can open any door
A good man is hard to find
A hard man is good to find
A hiding to nothing - On
A house divided against itself cannot stand
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step
A knight in shining armour
À la carte
À la mode
A legend in one's own lifetime
A leopard cannot change its spots
A little bird told me
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing
A little of what you fancy does you good
A load of cobblers
A load of codswallop
A man after my own heart
A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client
A millstone around one's neck
A ministering angel shall my sister be
A miss is as good as a mile
A nation of shopkeepers
A nest of vipers
A no-brainer
A nod is as good as a wink
A norange
A penny for your thoughts
A picture is worth a thousand words
A piece of the action
A pig in a poke
A place for everything and everything in its place
A plague on both your houses
A priori
A red rag to a bull
A riddle wrapped up in an enigma
A rolling stone gathers no moss
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
A rose is a rose is a rose
A safe pair of hands
A sea change
A skeleton in the closet
A sledgehammer to crack a nut
A shot in the arm
A sight for sore eyes
A sorry sight
A stitch in time saves nine
A stone's throw
A thing of beauty is a joy forever
A tinker's damn
A turn up for the books
A watched pot never boils
A wolf in sheep's clothing
A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle
A woman's place is in the home
A word in edgeways
A word in your shell-like
A young man's fancy
A1 at Lloyds
Abandon all hope ye who enter here
Abide with me
About face
About turn
Above board
Abracadabra
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Absent without leave
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
Accidentally on purpose
Accidents will happen

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio
Alike as two peas in a pod
Alive and kicking
All agog
All at sea
All fingers and thumbs
All Greek to me
All in all
All intents and purposes
All of a sudden
All present and correct
All publicity is good publicity
All singing, all dancing
All systems go
All that glitters is not gold / All that glisters is not gold
All the tea in China - Not for
All things come to those who wait
All things must pass
All you can eat
All's fair in love and war
Alter ego
Amber nectar
An albatross around one's neck
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
An arm and a leg
An axe to grind
An Englishman's home is his castle
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A bunch of fives
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link
