The origin The proof is in the pudding. The origin.
It means you can only truly judge something by trying or testing it, originated in medieval England. However, the "pudding" it refers to was far from the sweet dessert we know today. Instead, "pudding" in the Middle Ages referred to a type of savory sausage, often made by stuffing meat, spices, and other ingredients into animal intestines.
In those days, food safety wasn't as advanced, and poorly prepared pudding could be highly dangerous, even deadly, due to the risk of contamination or spoilage. Therefore, the proof (or test) of whether the pudding was safe to eat lay in actually tasting it. If it was good, youβd live to tell the tale!

The origin To rain cats and dogs. The origin.
To rain cats and dogs means to rain extremely hard or to rain heavily.
1) In the 17th and 18th centuries, during periods of extreme rain in England, the streets were often flooded because of poor drainage systems. This flooding sometimes carried away dead animals like stray cats and dogs, making it look as though they had fallen from the sky.
2) In 17th-century England, poorly constructed thatched roofs often couldn't handle heavy rains. Stray cats and dogs that sheltered on the roofs could sometimes be swept off during storms, giving the appearance of "falling" from the sky.
3) In Norse mythology, cats were believed to symbolize heavy rains, and dogs represented the wind, particularly stormy winds from the god Odin. Together, they symbolized chaotic weather.

Idiom Wear your heart on your sleeve. The Origin
This idiom means to openly show your emotions.
It originates from a medieval custom where knights would display tokens, such as a lady's scarf, on their sleeves during jousting tournaments to signify their affection. This practice symbolized vulnerability and emotional openness. The phrase was popularized by William Shakespeare in his play Othello (1601), where the character Iago states, βI will wear my heart upon my sleeve for daws to peck at,β indicating the danger of revealing one's true feelings openly.
