Today's Phrase
If something is a long shot, it is very unlikely to happen. Examples I'm looking for a first edition of Alice in Wonderland for my mother's birthday. I know it's a long shot, but do you have one in stock? My favourite football team is in the cup final at the weekend. I think we could win, but it's a long shot. We could ask the company to replace your broken smartphone for free. It's a long shot, but it's worth trying."
