Here I am practicing with some additional color idioms: do I deserve an A plus? - My orthopedic surgeon gave me the {green light} to start walking 1 month after the accident. - I always feel that i'm a {black sheep} in social gatherings. I don't fit so well. - In the proctored exam, a student was {caught red handed} cheating, but I passed {with flying colors}. I surpassed my expectations without cheating. - When He got the promotion, they {painted the town red}. they celebrated wildly till midnight. - Weak films only see life as a {black and white}. it isn't that simple. there are so many {grey areas}. - In rural villages, your neighbors will be {green with envy} if you succeed in any thing in your life that is why you shouldn't live there. - I will follow a diet {once in a blue moon.} - I can't believe that mom and dad got divorced. it happened {out of the blue.}
I don't like pink, i will never use this idiom😂 no man should use it. Q: is (have got every single colour idiom covered!) stronger in meaning than the same sentence without the word (single)? Here are some more 🤓 - My siblings and I {rolled out the red carpet} and gave our mom a surprise on her birthday. - UAE made it possible to setup and register your company in less than 1 week. they managed to get red of the {red tape} and decrease time wasted in inefficient bureaucracy. - I do work hard but i am always {in the red}. I borrow money from my young brother. maybe I need to entertain the idea of becoming homesick in Europe for a while if not forever. - Back when I was 7, I had {a green thumb} and grew corn and popcorn in our 7 acre farm. - Did settling in japan made your bank account {in the black} or you're still struggling? - I {brown bad} all my meals in my 24 hours shifts. this way I eat healthy food and save money. - At the beginning of the winter, I'm always {off color} because of the flu.
Great! I do not recommend Japan for anyone's bank balance 😬. And as for your prejudiced refusal to use pink... come on. Break free of your macho shackles!
Thank you! Appreciate it. Yes, the expressions are fairly universal. I can confidently say they are used in US, UK and Australian English, anyway. Spelling is different, though. Colour (UK), color (US) and grey (UK), gray (US).
I hope you will be remembered!! If you teach some English tutorials in a systematic manner from beginner level...and in turn you get lot of love in the form of likes & subscribes ❤
Learned a lot from this, thank you!
Really? That's awesome.

And yes. 'single' adds emphasis to that sentence.
Thanks for replying.
I loved it!! Thank you so much
Quick question: Are these expressions used in different English speaking countries?
Thank you! Appreciate it. Yes, the expressions are fairly universal. I can confidently say they are used in US, UK and Australian English, anyway. Spelling is different, though. Colour (UK), color (US) and grey (UK), gray (US).

Thanks! May I ask why you suggest Beginner level? I think your level seems higher than Beginner.
