Common British Pub Phrases and Idioms.

Dec 20, 2023

Tis the season to be social.

Last weekend many people had Christmas work parties and dinners. I personally went to two and hosted one. I also went to one the weekend before. Over the next two weeks, I will be on holiday with my family and friends. I'm sure that I will go to more than one traditional English Pub several times. At other times of the year, this wouldn't be true. 

Check out these phrases:


Have you heard any of them before? 





Then share your stories with me in the New Year. 

 


We also use these idioms a lot this time of year. 





A lot of people try to go cold turkey with alcohol or chocolate in January. 

Homework

Prepare answers to these questions and book a lesson to discuss them.




I look forward to marking your homework in 2024.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone.
