Wind is a powerful force in nature. Wind energy may cause great waves in the world's oceans. Its power can be used to create electricity for cities and the countryside.
Wind can also power many expressions in American English. Let's start with a simple one. If you run like the wind, you can run very fast. After running, sometimes you can be full of energy.
If you are doing something difficult, it is good to have the wind at your back, for example, when you are sailing. In this way, it is easier to go forward.
Knowing the direction of the wind is one of the most important parts of sailing. When wind fills a sail, it makes the boat go faster. If you take the wind out of someone's sails, you prevent them from reaching their goals.
Let's turn from sailing to music. Many songwriters use the image of wind in their songs. If an idea is blowing in the wind, it is under discussion but has yet to be decided. When a singer sings"you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows", he means you know what is going on, and he tells you to trust yourself as you can find something out on your own.
Now you know which way the wind blows. Then how can you use these expressions properly? First, read them aloud and keep them in mind. Then, practice using them and test yourself. You know, practice makes perfect.
