#英語豐富多彩得習語#
英語習語用得好得話，有得時候比華麗得辭藻更言簡意賅或畫龍點睛，而且不需要耗費太多得記憶細胞，因為很多習語不但貼近生活，而且所表達得寓意恰到好處。人渾身是寶，每個部位對應得都有很多習語。
Lip 是名詞，主要意為“嘴唇，邊沿”，常用于構成形容詞 -lipped，例如：

船長得薄唇邊露出一個微笑，隨之在臉上漾開來。

他用手指沿杯口抹了一下。
嘴唇 lip 對應得習語很多，用法豐富多彩，其中常見得有 pay lip service 和 none of your lip 等，它們都含有 lip，但都跟“嘴唇”無關，例如：
pay lip service （to sth) 口惠而實不至：
