Find one’s feet 适应环境
    2019-04-22  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A: It’s almost a year since you moved to New York City. How are you doing now?

B: I was lonely when I first left home, but I’m finding my feet now.

Note: This term is a figurative way to mean “becoming used to a new situation or experience.” The expression must have been inspired by people observing a newly born calf or cub struggling to get to its feet for the first time. When a gazelle calf is released from its mother’s womb, it is delivered in a wet bundle to the ground. Almost immediately, the baby begins to try to stand up.
