A bitter pill to swallow . Not shallow .
All of these expressions are great, and even if I haven't come across some of them, I can get the hang of their meaning from the context) Thank you, teacher)
I knew all of them, but a few (like "memory like a sieve", "as a crow flies", "chop and change", "donkey's years", "up in arms") I only remembered passively, the rest I use occasionally, or, well, all the time :D
But it's a great list, most of those are very common.

the more time passes, the younger you become,
it must be admitted that some fortunes,
being unique, they happen to few,
to you because you are more and more beautiful
and to us so that we can admire you in this unique life of ours!

Professora bonita.
I feel like fish out of water when I'm surrounded by the crowd.
Hi Max, hope you are doing great. i have a question with these phrases, can we only use them with American people or British People?

Me trying to translate these useful expressions in 4 different dictionaries without much sucess: . Well, there are a good ones that they were always famous on TV, video games, books, etc. And it is a piece of cake to learn 'em, but the others... Damn it 😂. Max! You dressed to kill today, am I right ? Time flies and you still look so beautiful every day, my girl 😍. Thanks for this video, cielo ✨.
Thank you, Luis! :)
Haha yeah... unfortunately, it can be difficult to remember expressions like these because they're common, but we don't necessarily use them every day.
@@EnglishwithMax That's right! Although, there a great ones that I wrote up to memorise. I believe that they will help me in future conversations and chats. It was a pleasure! We will see ya in another video
i don't know if it's just me but when i heard to bear fruit it reminds me of to come to fruition because both of these have the word fruit in it

Agaisnt all odds is a title of a Phill collins' song.
Long time no see
Hello!
Do u know, I love U !
I am just a little bit confused about the meaning of " second to none". I would have thought this expression meant " exceptional", and "incomparable" but it seems it means as good as others.
It sort of depends on who's using it ;-) (there's some subjectivity). Most of the time I'd say it means exceptional or very good.
🥰🥰🥰
🙏🙏
The last time i use a C2 word, the american guy could not understand me.
Which word was it?
These expressions are similar to German expressions
Tell me 20 the best word in enghlish daily use
You are beautiful and elegant. Your earrings appeal to me
To be honest, I was completely in the dark about most of these expressions.
😁 👍
Are you voting for Joe biden or Donald Trump?
I'm not American ;-)
@@EnglishwithMax why
@@EnglishwithMax I was just going to say the same thing listening to your expression ! Are the medical terminology same in British & American English? Thanks in advance for your reply.
God save the King. 🤗♥️🇬🇧🤴
❤I will vote for President JOE BIDEN. Again. Max you are sweet 💕
How come you don't post vides every day
Because they take a lot of time to make :)
I thought it was on the same boat???
Maybe some people say it like that, but I've only ever heard "in the same boat".
