You are adding to In a pickle. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Say it out loud, 3 to 60 seconds. Reading it is not the same as hearing it.

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.

How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • I said I’d babysit my niece tonight, then I bought gig tickets for the same time. Now I’m in a proper pickle without upsetting anyone.
  • I told my boss the report was ready, now I'm in a right pickle because I haven't even started it.
  • We ended up in a pickle at the airport, two bags, three kids and a gate that changed twice.
  • I told Mum I'd be home for dinner, then my train got cancelled and my phone died. I'm in a bit of a pickle now.
  • We're in a right pickle here, the card's declined, the petrol light's on, and nobody's got cash.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
