Japanese Food is a Thing of Beauty

Hello, Everyone! It's Teacher Bear! With another blog just for you. 日本
くま



Japan has more than aesthetically beautiful buildings, cities, swords, and museums. It also has some of the most eye-catching food I've ever seen. The vibrant colors, aromas, and textures all add a layer of divine taste and help us identify the sweet/salty and savory flavors. Just take a look at the food I ate last time! Doesn't it look splendid and mouth-watering?

IOTD: "dark horse"





DARK HORSE


The idiom "dark horse" refers to a person or thing that is unknown or unexpected, but who/which unexpectedly wins or succeeds.



EXAMPLES


"He was a dark horse in the election, but he ended up winning."

"She is a dark horse, I had no idea she was a talented artist."



HISTORY


The term "dark horse" initially described a racehorse that was little known or had unknown capabilities, making it difficult for gamblers to assess its potential and set betting odds.
The first known use of the phrase in a literary context is in Benjamin Disraeli's 1831 novel, The Young Duke, where the protagonist attends a horse race and is surprised by the victory of a "dark horse" that he hadn't even noticed in the list of competitors.
The idiom quickly expanded beyond horse racing to describe individuals, particularly political candidates, who are not well-known or expected to win but unexpectedly succeed.
Modern Usage:
Today, "dark horse" continues to be used to describe someone who is an unexpected or unlikely winner or someone whose true abilities or potential are not immediately apparent.
