3 idiomatic expressions for today

On the off chance

If you do something on the off-chance, you do it in case it works, even though the chance of success may be small.

I put an ad on the net to sell a car on the off chance and 12 people rang in one hour

Spread the word

If you spread the word about something, you let as many people know about it as you can.

Everybody, spread the word. Sprake School has the lowest exam prices for Cambridge exams.They don´t charge to administer them.

Foggiest idea

If you don't have the foggiest idea, you don't know or understand anything at all. ('Foggiest notion' is also used.)

e.g. I haven´t the foggiest idea about where to find a job in Berlin.
