What does “Turn a lemon(s) into lemonade” exactly mean?
Solution 1:
This is a rather popular, commonly used phrase (in many different variations).
No matter the exact wording, in general you want to keep in mind two things:
- Lemons are sour.
- Lemonade is sweet.
To make lemonade out of lemons is to take something that is not so great and turn it into something good.
A very common phrase is as follows: "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
