Description

A short and effective lesson on typical, common, and useful idioms. Idioms are a fun part of any language!

Recommended English Level: Proficient/Intermediate/Advanced (Beginner's may struggle, but not impossible!)

Because of the ambiguity of idioms in a literal translation, the main goal of the lesson is not to have a in-depth theoretical understanding of the expression, but rather to memorize the idiom and know the general context and usage of the idiom.

Learning idioms allows you to have fun expressions and better fluency!
