The Tim じぁん!!!
It's overcast today. As I got up in the morning, I found my dad making miso soup, which was new. It turned out to taste good. Later, I decided to huddle up in my bed and watch some YouTubers' videos to whom I recently subscribed. During this time, I came across a phrase - “beat around the bush”. I asked my dad about it, and he took it literally, responding, “What do you mean, beat the bush?” He didn't know the correct meaning either. We both learned a new phrase, and I made the most of my extra break.

it, and he took it literally, responding, “What do you mean, beat the bush?” He
didn't know the correct meaning either. We both learned a new phrase, and I made

Probably mostly used in the negative - stop beating around the bush, get to the point.
Similar to pussyfoot around, although that’s more about action.
