Cat got your tongue
Meaning: something said when a person is at a loss for words
History: There are two possible sources for this common short saying.
The first refers to the cat-o’-nine-tails- a whip used by the English navy for
flogging. The whip caused so much pain that the victims were left speechless.
The second refers to the practice of cutting out the tongues of liars and
blasphemers and feeding them to cats.

break the ice
Meaning: To commence a project or initiate a friendship
History: before the days of trains or cars,port cities that thrived on trade
suffered during the winter because frozen rivers prevented commercial ships
from entering the city. Small ships known as “icebreakers” would rescue the
icebound ships by breaking the ice and creating a path for them to follow.
Before any type of business arrangement today, it is now customary
“break the ice” before beginning a project.

How they build houses and also grow food
The people of ancient Egypt built mud brick homes in villages and in the country. They grew some of their own food and traded in the villages for the food and goods they could not produce.
