Unibrow


 It’s hilarious and native speakers will LOVE it if they hear you use it. The first part of the word “uni” means “one”.  For example, a “unicycle” means “one wheel” and a “bicycle” means “2 wheels”.  (bi means two)
Secondly, “brow” is short for “eyebrow”.  A person’s “eyebrow” is the hair above each eye.  Most people have 2 eyebrows. So now… Imagine a really hairy person.
 Sometimes these people will have hair in between their eyebrows.  This makes the eyebrows look connected, and it makes the person look like they have one HUGE eyebrow.  Trust me, it doesn’t look good.  If you see someone with this, you can say they have a “unibrow”.  It’s really funny American slang.  All native English speakers know what this is, and they will laugh if you use this term “unibrow” correctly.  Below is a photo of someone with a unibrow so you can understand what I’m talking about.  Hilarious!! I hope you enjoyed that lesson! I am sure it will be helpful for you. In today's world, it's important to sound great when you speak English with native speakers.
