Question 1 Report

Choose the option that best explains the information conveyed in the sentences.

Here he comes, speak of the devil. 

Answer Details

The phrase "Here he comes, speak of the devil" is an idiomatic expression. It is used when someone who was just being discussed unexpectedly appears or is present. This expression does not literally refer to the devil. Therefore, the option that best explains the information conveyed in the sentence is that he appears as he is being discussed. This expression is used to note the coincidence and is often said humorously.
