What expression do you think should replace this outdated one?
“Putting the cart before the horse” means to do something contrary to the expected or proper order, like having children before getting married or buying a new car before getting a promotion. But we rarely see horses nor carts anymore. How would you express the idea of putting the cart before the horse in modern terms?
