Sleep Idioms
“Wrong side of the bed”
The phrase “waking up on the wrong side of the bed” refers to waking up in a bad mood, and originates from an Ancient Roman superstition, made popular by Augustus Caesar. They were always vigilant in making sure not to get up on the ‘sinister’ (left) side of the bed, as they believed this was a bad omen and would lead to bad luck.
“Sleep like a log”
When people say they “slept like a log”, they usually mean that they slept soundly, without moving, all night. It is a little known fact that this phrase actually originates from the 1883 classic novel, Treasure Island.
“Hit the hay/sack”
When people say they’re about to “hit the hay”, they are saying they are about to go to bed. This phrase originates from people in the early 1900s and before sleeping on mattresses stuffed with hay or straw.
“Sleep tight”
Beds and mattresses as we know them today have only been in use for a century. Prior to this, people usually slept on mattresses supported by ropes that crossed over each other.
''Let sleeping dogs lie”
This idiom is used when people want to warn others against instigating a situation, they would advise them to “let sleeping dogs lie”. This phrase is thought to originate from the Bible, however it did not appear in its current form. By the 1700s, the phrase had evolved to the form in which we see it today, and became popular, after Sir Robert Walpole, a British Prime Minister was quoted using it on multiple occasions.
