Idioms- The Apple Doesn't Fall Far from the Tree



Meaning – used to refer to similarities (like physical appearance and character) shared between children and parents.

Ø      Sarah not only inherited her father’s good looks, but she also inherited his temper. I suppose the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.


Ø      It seems every other person in the Johnson clan is an engineer. It’s like they say, ‘the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.’
