Yes, Svet, it is idiomatic:
To try one's hand = to attempt something for the first time.
We have a number of idiomatic forms with 'hand':
To give someone a hand (= assist; applaud) To hand someone something (= to give) I've got to hand it to you (= I must compliment you) etc. . _________________ Canadian-American native speaker who teaches English for a living at Mister Micawber's ESL cafe: Interview with Mr. Micawber |
