"Play it by ear" is perhaps a musical terms, and means playing the music just by hearing it (and not from a written note), in an improvisation, which is completely spontaneous.
I particularily like the idiom: to make a mountain out of a molehill. In Polish we have another idiom with the same meaning: to make a fork out of a needle. But in this idiom it is about a big fork, which you use in farming to, for ex., load the hay (in Polish we have a separate word for such fork which rhymes with needle).
Leila, I love learning languages and enjoy dropping in on these lessons for English learners. After studying other languages its fun to have a look at one's native language as a non-English speaker might approach it. I wasn't familiar with "British" idioms so I was curious what they were. I am American and 48 of the 50 idioms are commonly used here in the states. I never heard "chalk & cheese" before. I may have heard "Cats amongst the pigeons" but I believe it is rarely ever used in the US. So 48 of the 50 are probably generic "English idioms" that Aussies probably use also. You might want to point out that chalk & cheese is British and many native English speakers will not be familiar with it (although I think the meaning can easily be gleaned). You should let your students know these are common generic English idioms and also point out any that are peculiar to a single country. You should point out that "Play it by ear" is used idiomatically but also nearly literally to describe when a musician plays a song he hasn't practiced but plays what sounds right. "Barking up the wrong tree" has a literal origin when a hunting dog is barking up the a tree that the animal is no longer hiding in. The expression "In for a penny, in for a pound" is commonly used here in the US even though it has not matched our currency for 200+ years. "In for a penny, in for a dollar" just doesn't sound right
There’s no better way to start your day than with a powerful lesson taught by a gorgeous teacher . I love learning idioma they are both useful and key in order to understand Native English speaker , Sabrah pink is definitely your color , your beauty stands out ( I always say to her that with any color she is wearing ) .Sabrah always looks like a million bucks , does any other man get the feeling to pop the question right now ?
Hi Sabrah, Your lesson about best British Idioms is truly amazing. I admire your suggestions and follow. I am write down all idioms for learning and practice. Some examples of idioms: 1. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and everything has been done for. 2. The teacher's advise certainly gave me food for thought. 3. You need to learn to think before you speak so you don't put your foot in your mouth. 4. What he does in public and how in acts in private are as different as chalk and cheese. 5. This latest scandal has left the government with egg on it face. 6. His chances of winning are extremely small, but pigs might fly. 7. Peter decided to take the bull by the horns and organize the show herself. Thank you.
It was really an excellent show from you. I'd like to thank you a lot for such an effort. It is interesting to know these idioms and use them. I think you and Leila are like two peas in a pod. Wish you all best of luck ever! Thank you.
Great job!!! Thanks!!!!! I have a question. Is there any idiom to refer to the person who takes the important decisions in a company? If I translated it from Spanish, it would be something like: This is the person who cut the cod.
I love your videos on how to teach English because it is really well explained and I support your videos and English lessons very much I take a hat off my head

Hello Leila, thank you for this terrific lesson. If I may ask, does the idiom "cream of the crop" apply to one person or to a group of people, or does it apply to both? Thank you.
It doesn't necessarily refer only to people. "The bookstore was having a sale but I arrived late. The best books were already gone. The early arrivals grabbed the 'cream of the crop'"
Hi, Sabrah and Leila! You both look like a million dollars! So classy, stylish and dainty.💃👗👠 We're nuts about your channel. You're always a sight for our sore eyes! In a nutshell you're the apple of our eyes ( a great food idiom then😉). As for your question about you and Leila! We reckon you're definitely like two peas in a pod!👯 You're wonderfull friends. And Leila's acting is an icing on the top! She's fantastic! Hollywood REALLY needs her.😂😍😍 You'll think we compliment you too much. But, ladies, you really deserve it! You're the best!👍💗 Have a great summer!🌼🌞🏖️ Toodle-pip!👋❤️
Hey Sabrah. Really funny learning english even by idioms. I am looking for your british idioms into italian by wordreference and I have to admit that it is so curious to see and translating the same concept from different viewpoints! Compliments. Anyway Leila and you are like peas in a pod and not like chalk and cheese. You're a big team.
Two adorable Lollapaloozas in one pod, two sumptuous icings on a Fortune Pud, slogging their topper best at their customary cup of Rosie tea imparting posh Bull's eye stuff being eyesome prodigies contributing to one Picture of Beauty in one jolly resplendent Masterpiece :) Awesome success & resplendent progress to You in Your endeavours ! Jolly Divine Holiday for You to relish in its overall rapture & mesmerising elation, Dear Leila & Sabrah. Godspeed!!!
Thank you for helping us, your students, not to bang our heads against the brick wall when learning English. I would like to meet and greet you lovely ladies and have cream tea with you. I‘d give my right hand to do it. But, I guess, I‘ve got my head in the clouds...Greetings from Basingstoke
Leila and The Queen Sabrah are like chalk and cheese, they can’t be any more different and that’s is amazing . I remember the one with Star Wars theme , it was amazing , I fell in love with the blonde one immediately.Learn English is great getting a gorgeous teacher is the icing on the cake .🥰
Very interesting idioms and the half were new for me. Anyway I don't know if you use to say " too much meat on the fire "(we say so in italian) because the lesson was too long with so many things to remember in one go.
But you can watch part of it or several times. You don't have to watch it all at once. We don't have an equivalent idiom for that but that is a good one!
Hi Sabrah Gargi here . You know here in India we have so many idioms common to yours ... To be born with a silver spoon in mouth is one of them , I was so amazed to see that
TH-cam, you're doing such a great job. Congrats xD Now seriously, you say "play something by ear" it means not to plan something, to decide what to do spontaneously VG: my friends and I hadn't decided what to do on New Year's Eve yet, we will play it by ear. But can I use that idiom literally? For instance : you play very well the piano, you learnt that song in the school or you're playing by ear? Thank you so much for the lesson and have a Nice Christmas both of you ❤🔥
It's so entertaining your class, I can learn so much. Congratulation for that. English is a language not than easy to dominate. But with you I can learn a bit more idionatic expression.
Mam i have a question. If i go to a certain barber shop once a month am i a regular to that shop or i can use regular word for that????? That will be big help😐😐
I've been aching for the job for a very long time and out of the blue my boss told me yesterday that your are promoted for that job. When I told my sister this thing she said, "I won't believe you unless I hear this straight from the horse mouth".
Wife : " You coming home late again , this is 2 Am in the morning ." Husband : " Get off my back honey, none of yr business !." ( drunk ) Wife : I'll be back honey . Uh, this is very interesting lesson from " Love English w/ Sabrah " I love it. Thks so much for upload this vid lesson Sabrah.. always the best 👍💕
Dear Sabrah This letter is for expressing my thoughts for you . I really love you and Leila . You two are so adorable that I can't stop watching you everyday . Sometimes I think that it would be the best if I was one of your family members especially your sister . If I was your sister I would also join you in your videos and spend all day with you . This is my dad's phone but I want you to know that when I'll get my own , I'll be following you here and your other social networks . But there's a problem that occurs . I've decided to go to London when I grow up but I don't know exactly where you live in there . I'm afraid I won't be able to find you . Lemme become an adult and I'll be there . I'm so sad cuz I need three more years to be an adult but don't worry I'll definitely meet you two . Hope you two are doing well . Yours ever , G
Awww Gargi you are very sweet we are so happy that you like our videos so much! Your kind comments make us smile! Hopefully you can come and visit the UK when you are older! Please share our videos and we send a hug from the UK! 💕
I can't imagine "to have a bun in the oven" to tell someone in spanish "tienes un bollo en el horno" or my family in Italy "c'è l'hai una focaccina nel forno" it sounds very funny and offensive.
"Barking up the wrong tree" doesn't have anything to do with a dog or its barks 😂😂😂😂 It's about cutting or scoring some marks on the bark of trees in a forest to not lose way while returning etc. 🔥
We hope you love this lesson and super British idioms as much as we do! Please try using some of the idioms below
and we'll check if they are correct! You'll be sounding British in no time! big hugs from Leila and Sabrah!

These ladies are filled with english language.we can draw out English as much as we can.
This channel is the best thing since sliced bread!

But in this idiom it is about a big fork, which you use in farming to, for ex., load the hay (in Polish we have a separate word for such fork which rhymes with needle).

You are very welcome Karolina! Thanks for your comment 💞
Hi
Thanks for your awesome videos
I have an Important question, could you give me a hand
my listening skills is good and I can 90% understand your videos but when it comes to speaking I cant speak well
could you suggest me ways to improve this ? thank you in advance .
Hello Leila, thank you for this terrific lesson. If I may ask, does the idiom "cream of the crop" apply to one person or to a group of people, or does it apply to both? Thank you.
It doesn't necessarily refer only to people. "The bookstore was having a sale but I arrived late. The best books were already gone. The early arrivals grabbed the 'cream of the crop'"
Hi, Sabrah and Leila! You both look like a million dollars! So classy, stylish and dainty.💃👗👠
We're nuts about your channel. You're always a sight for our sore eyes! In a nutshell you're the apple of our eyes ( a great food idiom then😉). As for your question about you and Leila! We reckon you're definitely like two peas in a pod!👯 You're wonderfull friends.
And Leila's acting is an icing on the top! She's fantastic! Hollywood REALLY needs her.😂😍😍
You'll think we compliment you too much. But, ladies, you really deserve it! You're the best!👍💗
Have a great summer!🌼🌞🏖️
Toodle-pip!👋❤️
Hey Sabrah. Really funny learning english even by idioms. I am looking for your british idioms into italian by wordreference and I have to admit that it is so curious to see and translating the same concept from different viewpoints! Compliments. Anyway Leila and you are like peas in a pod and not like chalk and cheese. You're a big team.
Great Lesson Sabrah
Thanks so much Ebrahima! 💕
Good job ❤
Two adorable Lollapaloozas in one pod, two sumptuous icings on a Fortune Pud, slogging their topper best at their customary cup of Rosie tea imparting posh Bull's eye stuff being eyesome prodigies contributing to one Picture of Beauty in one jolly resplendent Masterpiece :)
Awesome success & resplendent progress to You in Your endeavours ! Jolly Divine Holiday for You to relish in its overall rapture & mesmerising elation, Dear Leila & Sabrah.
Godspeed!!!
Thank you for helping us, your students, not to bang our heads against the brick wall when learning English.
I would like to meet and greet you lovely ladies and have cream tea with you.
I‘d give my right hand to do it. But, I guess, I‘ve got my head in the clouds...Greetings from Basingstoke
Awww lovely comment thanks so much. You are not that far away in Basingstoke!
Do I need to rote it all regularly to remember it or any tips to catch up the ideas easily. Please suggest any method.....
Awesome!
Thank you Loreno!
@@LoveEnglishUK , my pleasure 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Really u r top notch
Thank you! 💕
Thank you 🙏🏽 Sabrah & Leila 💕 💐 💐
Btw, Leila was 89% showing off while doing her makeup 💄
Very good mam
Totally agree with Sabrah"She and Leila are two peas in a pod"
A cherry on the cake in a negative sense ~Add insult to injury =из огня да в полымя
Leila and The Queen Sabrah are like chalk and cheese, they can’t be any more different and that’s is amazing . I remember the one with Star Wars theme , it was amazing , I fell in love with the blonde one immediately.Learn English is great getting a gorgeous teacher is the icing on the cake .🥰
Awww you are a sweetheart as always Luis! And a great student!! I appreciate you so much! Sending a huge thank you 💕💕💕
Leila and Sabrah are definitely two peas in a pod. Thank you for this great lesson!
Your are very welcome 💕
U r AMAZING! can't THANK YOU enough!
Grazie mile Roberto!!! Thank you so much! 💕💕
Very interesting idioms and the half were new for me. Anyway I don't know if you use to say " too much meat on the fire "(we say so in italian) because the lesson was too long with so many things to remember in one go.
But you can watch part of it or several times. You don't have to watch it all at once. We don't have an equivalent idiom for that but that is a good one!
So, I'm really interested in the topic but I will watch it after my exams ( which are tomorrow).I was also wondering if you have received my essay.
Yes, I’ve got it! Will email you the weekend! Xxx
Thank you sooo much!!!
Hi Sabrah Gargi here . You know here in India we have so many idioms common to yours ... To be born with a silver spoon in mouth is one of them , I was so amazed to see that
Hey Kate fruity or Gargi your code is dark right???
You use fruity fan instead of Gargi right!!?
That would be nice!!! Gargi how you feel today? I like to talk with about all. Because you're a marvelous person and I see that thank you My friend
@@reinaldolopezlope3142 hi Reinaldo... Remember me ???
@@sohamroy6810 Hello yes my friend
Nice video
Thanks Kashif!
#5 We have the same idioms in German. But we say in this way Someone the cold shoulder to give.
Sabrah nice to have a lengthy one from you!
Thanks Ahmed! If you love it please share it! 💕
@@LoveEnglishUK Welcome Sabrah!
@@LoveEnglishUK I like the new change of Title Photo! More professional!

To make a mountain out of a molehill! In Romanian, we say "to make a stallion out of a moskito" with that meaning!!! :))
TH-cam, you're doing such a great job. Congrats xD
Now seriously, you say "play something by ear" it means not to plan something, to decide what to do spontaneously VG: my friends and I hadn't decided what to do on New Year's Eve yet, we will play it by ear. But can I use that idiom literally? For instance : you play very well the piano, you learnt that song in the school or you're playing by ear?
Thank you so much for the lesson and have a Nice Christmas both of you ❤🔥
It's so entertaining your class, I can learn so much. Congratulation for that. English is a language not than easy to dominate. But with you I can learn a bit more idionatic expression.
Thanks Albert! We’re so happy you enjoyed the lesson 💕😊👍
Mam i have a question. If i go to a certain barber shop once a month am i a regular to that shop or i can use regular word for that????? That will be big help😐😐
Hi! i have tried to buy your book on the website but it gives me problem with the address
Email me directly at sabrah@loveenglish.co.uk and we can sort it out
Super
whenever in our school we see a student buttering the teacher we tell him/her that butter is really costly please don't use that much.
Sabrah can you do a video on cliches and metaphors please.
Yes clichés is a good idea!
@@LoveEnglishUK Looking forward to it.💯
I've been aching for the job for a very long time and out of the blue my boss told me yesterday that your are promoted for that job. When I told my sister this thing she said, "I won't believe you unless I hear this straight from the horse mouth".
Yes great example! Super well done 💕
Hello lady in red! Thanks Sabrah!
You’re welcome 😊
👍🏻👍🏻 Like.
Thanks Ercan! If you love it please share it! 💕💕
@@LoveEnglishUK Okey.. Sabrah
Wife : " You coming home late again , this is 2 Am in the morning ."
Husband : " Get off my back honey, none of yr business !." ( drunk )
Wife : I'll be back honey .
Uh, this is very interesting lesson from " Love English w/ Sabrah "
I love it. Thks so much for upload this vid lesson Sabrah.. always the best 👍💕
Haha very funny Rianti! Good example! 💕😂Thanks so much for your lovely comment
More important than THEM!!!
How about: 'A face that could make a mother cry.? Which is pretty brutal.
Dear Sabrah
This letter is for expressing my thoughts for you . I really love you and Leila . You two are so adorable that I can't stop watching you everyday . Sometimes I think that it would be the best if I was one of your family members especially your sister . If I was your sister I would also join you in your videos and spend all day with you . This is my dad's phone but I want you to know that when I'll get my own , I'll be following you here and your other social networks . But there's a problem that occurs . I've decided to go to London when I grow up but I don't know exactly where you live in there . I'm afraid I won't be able to find you . Lemme become an adult and I'll be there . I'm so sad cuz I need three more years to be an adult but don't worry I'll definitely meet you two . Hope you two are doing well .
Yours ever ,
G
Awww Gargi you are very sweet we are so happy that you like our videos so much! Your kind comments make us smile! Hopefully you can come and visit the UK when you are older! Please share our videos and we send a hug from the UK! 💕
You are my favourite madam
I love you 😍😘👌👍
Aww you are so sweet thank you! If you love the lesson then please share it! 💕
👌
I must have British background because I recognize most these idioms
I don't know anymore if I am watching it to improve my English or because Sabrah is so cute
😍😍
I can't imagine "to have a bun in the oven" to tell someone in spanish "tienes un bollo en el horno" or my family in Italy "c'è l'hai una focaccina nel forno" it sounds very funny and offensive.
No deal (Brexit) would be the icing on the cake.
"Barking up the wrong tree" doesn't have anything to do with a dog or its barks 😂😂😂😂 It's about cutting or scoring some marks on the bark of trees in a forest to not lose way while returning etc. 🔥
chalk and chese more like I would say,it is my opinion though.
'Having itchy feet' means being a fan of travelling, right?
