Idioms play a very important part in English. Native speakers often use them, so it's essential for you to learn some of them too.
1. Choose one idiom or expression that you like and write a sentence using it properly. You'll have to explain its meaning to your classmates using your own words. End date: Friday 10th February.
2. Some English idioms have an equivalent in Spanish. Can you find any?
3. Enjoy yourself learning idioms.

ReplyDeleteThrowing in the towel => this modism is presented when, after several attempts to perform an action, activity or project, you are not able to reach, giving way to resignation.

Drowning in a glass of water => There are people all complain and that the slightest inconvenience makes all tragedy.
My neighbor was furious because he found a caterpillar munching on a piece of one of your garden plants. And just because it was already drowning in a glass of water.
