You are adding to On its last legs. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

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

Real-life examples
  • The old washing machine is on its last legs, it groans like a ghost and leaves a puddle every single cycle.
  • The old kettle is on its last legs, takes ten minutes to boil and rattles like it is about to take off.
  • My trainers are on their last legs, the sole flaps every step and I leave a little trail of rubber behind me.
  • That van’s on its last legs, mate. You have to sweet-talk it before it’ll start in the morning.
  • I’m on my last legs after that double shift, so if anyone says gym, they can jog on.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
