Turns of Phrase that Shakespeare Created
For wordsmiths, William Shakespeare sets a goal to high for any of us to reach. Anglotopia has assembled a massive list of phrases that the Bard created. Here are just ten:
- A countenance more in sorrow than in anger
- A Daniel come to judgment
- A dish fit for the gods
- A fool’s paradise
- A foregone conclusion
- A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!
- A ministering angel shall my sister be
- A plague on both your houses
- A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
- A sea change
- A sorry sight
