I think I learned some sayings wrong, mainly because I learned them from a deaf mother. Is it: It takes two to tangle or it takes two to tango You have another think coming or you have another thing coming Ulterior motive or alterior motive
Probably. But that's not the saying. Perhaps it should be. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! But then again, you can only tango with exactly two. You can tangle with many.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
You've got another think coming. Mrow is wrong; so is Judas Priest. The full joke is: If that's what you think, you have another think coming. It's been shortened and no one remembers that it's a deliberately ungrammatical joke. It's difficult to tell NG from NK in that position, so people assume they're hearing NG, which is at least grammatically correct even if it doesn't really make any sense. An earlier saying, going back at least ninety years, was: You have another guess coming. The joke was probably built upon this.
