關於Egg的意思和用法的提問

A: “I’ve got an egg on my face.”
= A phrase of embarrassment

You’ve been caught in a foolish or embarrassing moment, so you “don’t look good.” You wouldn’t look good with an egg on your face either.

A: They mean to bring them a hard boiled egg.

A: It’s just a play on the old “joke”
“why did the chicken cross the road?”
“To get to the other side”

"I'm going egging on Halloween".

A: yep, that's an interesting idiom/expression.

A: Egg on one's face means to be embarrassed so some examples would be:

"I was totally wrong and now I have an egg on my face."

But this isn't a common phrase. I don't think I've ever heard anyone use it outside of a cartoon, so people might be confused if you used it.

With a cat, there is more than one thing you can be allergic to; you might be allergic to cat hair, or you might be allergic to cat dander. You might be allergic to both. Since there is more than one thing, then it is plural. Cat allergies.
An egg is just one thing, and if you are allergic to eggs, you are just allergic to the egg as a whole. Since it is only one allergy, and not multiple allergies like the allergies to cat hair and cat dander, then it is singular. Egg allergy.
