Today we covered more idioms. We discussed him memorizing the idioms as the best possible study method. Idioms have unexpected meanings and can be very difficult for a non-native speaker to understand. We also covered formal and informal casual English such as the proper titles to address bosses and professors with.
Idioms we practiced:
- (To) Hit the books
- (To) Hit the sack
- (To be) Up in the air
- (To) Stab someone in the back
- (To) lose your touch
- (To) Sit tight
- (To) Pitch in
- (To) Go cold turkey
- (To) Face the music
- (To be) On the ball
- Rule of thumb
