Answer:

Breaking a bill : giving a change

Common clay : Ordinary individual

Explanation:

Breaking a bill : A bill could be said to be broken when a smaller bill or denomination is returned to a person usually after having paid for a service or dashing out a part of the larger bill.

Common clay : This phrase takes out the uniqueness or special adornment, as it connotes 'ordinary' or lacking any special features or characteristic. In the context, common clay refers to an ordinary individual.

Trifle : represents which are of little or less importance, value or amount. Things that may be considered as insignificant.

How can rain play a spoil spot at the compining trip?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

It could ruin the whole essence of a camping trip, the experience of camping outside among nature.

Explanation:

The primary purpose of any camping trip might well be to experience nature and be among the woods, enjoying the surroundings and being one with nature. The outside camping, the bonfire, the tents, all are part of the experience. But if it rains, then everything gets ruined. The camping won't be a success, bonfires are impossible, out of the question, and the proposed experience of being one with nature might as well be eliminated. Not only will it ruin the plans, it will also make it impossible to even camp properly, let alone do anything. Staying dry will be the only objective. It could ruin the whole essence of a camping trip, the experience of camping outside among nature.
