Fingers

Index of Daily Doses: http://DailyDoseOfEnglish.com

This short lesson tells you the names of the fingers in English. It also gives you a common expression - "to know something like the back of your hand".

The English Social Network is a Facebook-type site that allows English language learners to meet like-minded people and share their thoughts and ideas about English.

Social networks exist to give everyone the chance to participate and share their knowledge and ideas for the benefit of others.

The English Social Network is dedicated to bringing you daily videos giving common expressions in English. It has a lot of dynamic, fast-changing content that will keep you interested and help you to continually develop your English skills.

I encourage students to submit their comments by video, too. This way students can practice their spoken English and make use of the new technology. This is an exciting new way of learning English.

In Dutch we say: "I know my house on my little thumb" :)

thank you! it's funny cause here in Italy we say "like the palm of my hand" but it means the same. thank you again.

This is completely useful.

@znoenglish Yes you can, but it seems more logically suited to talk about places rather than people. For people you could use, "I can read him like a book."

[znoenglish]

Can we use "to know smth like the back of my hand" when we talk about people? Can we say "I know him like the back of my hand"?
