    I started learning English when I was 14 through internet and tv and now I'm 18 and I'm Indian but my accent in like a native American. Everyone get shocked when they hear my accent. Learning English made me confident and now I'm going to pursue Korean language. I realized that Learning never stops so everyone keep going and just pursue what makes you happy:)

    Some of these were new to me, and I'm a native speaker who has been teaching English as a foreign language for 8-9 years! The reason for this is that idioms are used differently in different English-speaking countries and even in different locations within those countries. It was interesting to learn some new ones.

    I am an interpreter. Idioms and colloquialisms are often the hardest for second language users to learn and understand. It’s nice to have a place to talk about them. English is very rich in idioms.
    Some more colorful idioms could be:
    Seeing red: enraged
    Blue in the face: basically it means wasting your time talking about a matter to the point as if you are running out of air and turning blue( I could tell him til I’m blue in the face and he will never understand )
    In the red: in debt
    In the black: making a profit
    In the pink: healthy

    As a native English speaker, I understand that “having the blues” means you’re melancholic or even depressed. I feel that I should caution non-native speakers from asking someone or referring to someone as “have the blues” because it can sound dismissive of how they really feel.

    As a native English speaker, I've also noticed a generational gap when it comes to use of idioms. The elderly seem to use different expressions than the young. For example, I've never heard anyone under 50 say "paint the town red". Us Millennials seem to use metaphors more than expressions or sayings. Slang is an interesting thing.

    I found this channel actually in 2018 when I was at mid-school. But, at that time my listening skill was so bad, I still lacked of vocabulary and I didn't understand even a single sentence from Marina's speech. But in quaratine period, I want to deal with it. I listen to Marina's videos everyday since October 2020. At first, it was hard to understand the videos. I had to pause the video, search the meaning of words at google, took a screenshots, etc. However, I keep did that for 1,5 months and I can recognize my skill was increasing. Until now, I keep listen to Marina's videos and now every time when I listen to Marina, it is very enjoyable and super clear. Thanks, teacher.

It's just "a figure of speech", or IDIOM. ... a similar situation with the next one down on your list.
      You obviously have LIVED in the U.S. to have such a grasp of these "sayings", slang, idioms, figures-of-speech ..
      because they can't be easily taught (or learned) from a book. Well done !!!

    I love IDIOMS; in fact, I love them so much I make videos about where they come from; you know their history. Thanks for making these videos for students who are learning English. Your videos are great and so is your English. ❤❤

      This is kind of orange and apple comparison. Depend on how much time you spend on each class. English 101 might teach you how to write, read, sentence structure,...only in a semester or quarter. You'd never come back again after passing it. I took it too.

    "Blue blood" is equally present in Hungarian. The nobles were so named because they were less affected by the Sun, and they were still in long attire, so they had so white and thin skin that they almost shone through their veins. So simple. :)

    You are amazing!! I swear, I love your videos!! May I just give you a piece of advice? In my modest opinion, you should try to speak slower, put the subtitles in English in all your videos and, finally, to give more examples in order to contextualise. For example, I love the fact that you use serials as examples but it would be better if you put the whole scene and not just a sentence, in order to better understand how to use that specific expression. I hope you don't mind about these suggestions! I love your style!
