開いた口がふさがらない



開いた口がふさがらない
frequency of usage in daily life .... ★★☆☆☆

意味:あきれて、ものが言えないこと
to be amazed or stunned by something or somebody

例文1:彼の頑固な態度には、開いた口がふさがらなかった。
I was amazed by his stubborn attitude.

例文2:あまりの値段の高さに、開いた口がふさがらない。
I couldn't say anything because of its fancy price.


I'd say this expression is used in writing rather than in conversation.
Please don't say 「開いた口がふさがらない」 after finding some stupid mistakes in my English writings!

Hi

Hi Emi,
I'm RYUICHI, living in Philadelphia for a half month, and I'm studying English to apply a graduate school. I found you via Daily Yo-ji. Actually, one of that authors is my friend and conversation partner.
By the way, I'm very impressed by your blog and belief. I want to visit here, sometimes. Can you let me add your link to my page?

To RYUICHI

Sure thing! Please do! I'll visit your site tomorrow because I've got to go for supper. Sorry!!
