Question

Select the option that completes the given idiom correctly.
A bird in hand is worth _______________

A.

two in the bush

B.

many in the forest

C.

two in the ground

D.

some in the tree

Correct option is A


The correct completion for the idiom "A bird in hand is worth" is "two in the bush." This idiom suggests that it is better to keep something you already have rather than risking it to try and get something more uncertain or elusive.
· The phrase "two in the bush" metaphorically represents potential or uncertain opportunities, implying that what you currently possess securely is more valuable than taking a risk for more, which may not materialize.
· Example: "After much deliberation, he decided to keep his reliable, older car rather than trading it for a newer model with uncertain quality—truly, a bird in hand is worth two in the bush."
