emerging as the it topic
All "full fart inn i" really states is that this is a trend, pick your preferred English idiom accordingly.
| Good idea, but I haven't heard a collocation with "the 'it' topic" before, I have only heard "the 'in' topic" or "the 'hot' topic". But perhaps this is another example of the US having different collocations to the UK. Thanks for your suggestion! |
