Idiom for the Day
……axe to grind...……
If you have ever had a dispute or argument with someone, you have had an axe to grind. The argument could be intense or petty, but it is probably annoying. Most people with an axe to grind resolve the problem, but some of these disputes go on forever.
Example: I didn’t speak to my sister for many years because I had an axe to grind.
