Dear teachers,
Would you be kind enough to tell me whether I am right with my interpretation of the expression in bold in the following sentence?
I have heard many unlikely rattling good yarns in my long life.
rattling (adj.) = used as intensifiers; 'real' is sometimes used informally for 'really'; 'rattling' is informal
rattling good yarn = fascinating tale
Thank you for your efforts.
Regards,
V.
