Your 'Dirty Laundry' Has Nothing to Do With Clothes

For example, let’s say you carefully select the clothes you plan on wearing to work or a party.

Now, a “laundry list” is not a list of the things you need to wash. It is a very long list of related things. For example, if you have many small tasks to finish at work, you can say you have a laundry list of projects.

In conversation, dirty laundry is much more than dirty shirts and jeans. The expression “dirty laundry” means all those embarrassing things we don't want others to know about us or our families.
