The cat is out of the bag
Victor： Hi,大家好,我是Victor，
Nancy： Nancy!
Victor： 今天我们讨论的Topic是：
Nancy：The cat is out of the bag.
Victor：泄露秘密。
Nancy：In this case, the ‘cat’ refers to a secret.
Victor：这里的“cat”是秘密的意思。
Nancy：The ‘cat is out of the bag’ means the secret is out, someone has opened his or her mouth, and it’s not a secret anymore.
Victor：这句话是说秘密被公布出去就不再是秘密了。
Nancy：So when you tell someone a secret, and then it comes back to you, you can say, “The cat’s out of the bag now!”
Victor：你告诉别人的秘密又传到你耳朵里，就可以说“The cat’s out of the bag now!”，秘密被泄露了。
Nancy: That’s all for today. See you!
Victor: See you!
