Idiom no.1

This week's idiom is `give a shot'.

Give a shot = to try

In Brazil, most people drive manual cars. In Australia, I drove an automatic car and never tried or intended to try to drive a manual car. Apparently I will need to have a driving test with a manual car even if I intend to drive an automatic car in Brazil.

I might fail my driving test with a manual car, but I will give it a shot.
