meanings of certain phrases
women selling The Suffragette at the street corners,or chalking up pavements with details of a forthcoming meeting.
what does "chalking up pavements" mean here?
Thanks so much!
I assume it means that she was writing the details of the meeting on the pavement (footpath), or what Americans call a "sidewalk", in chalk. These days she would send a Tweet or put it on Facebook!
