in one's birthday suit

Post by Itasan » Sat Apr 01, 2006 6:57 am

I have learned that ‘in one’s birthday suit’ means ‘with no clothes on’. I also found these sample sentences.

I got really drunk and ran around in my birthday suit!

I found it embarrassing for them to see me in my birthday suit.

Could you think of any other interesting sentences?

Thank you.

People make lots of jokes with this phrase - 'cos it sounds so silly.

We say things like 'wearing only his birthday suit'
