Idiomatic Expressions in English emphasise a specific quality of a person or thing by comparing it to something else. Assume you buy a new laptop computer that is extremely thin and light – ideal for travelling because it does not add weight to your backpack. When describing the mobile phone, emphasise its light weight by saying:
“This mobile phone weighs as little as a feather.”
