    Hello, Yes you are right the expression 'cold feet' can be used metaphorically to mean 'become nervous about something'. However, in this sentence the speaker is using it literally, he really does have cold feet. Meaning he went hunting and didn't catch any animals, the only thing he gained from his experience was getting cold feet. I hope this helps. Christine

    Hello Davood, It would be slightly better to say 'I don't like to be blamed for things I haven't done.'

    Hello Sean, Yes your sentences are all natural and correct. For me as a speaker of British English I would be most likely to use 'comes across' in these sentences. However, the others also make perfect sense. Christine

    Hello, 'The bird is a bright colour' is better. However, it would be even more natural to see 'The bird is brightly coloured'. I hope that helps, Christine

    Hello, The police is a collective noun and so we use a plural verb form. I hope that helps, Christine
