Hello and welcome again. So last week, I made a video about idioms and using idioms to express different feelings.
Well, today I have invited in a group of students from out there to practice these idioms so that you can learn and enjoy. Let's get straight into it.
As I said, last week, I'd made this video about idioms and it's all about feeling and we looked at out being angry, upset, nervous, bored, happy, sad, lots of feelings. And I thought it would be a good idea to ask some of the students out there in YouTube land or Facebook land to make a short video of themselves using these idioms.
Because the key thing about idioms, right, is not just to take one and use it in the test. You have to practice, you have to see it in context several times, start practicing it and then you build your confidence, and then you do better in the test.
So, I thought this would be a great opportunity. So, I've got several students who have sent me videos, and we're going to look at them now together and learn and practice.
Let's see the first one in action. You know, when this whole lockdown thing is over, I could hardly wait to go out and watch a movie with friends.
I love that, "when this whole lockdown thing", great way of speaking, "this whole lockdown thing", when something's quite negative. And I totally get it. Shaku, fantasty!
She wants to go out, she can hardly wait to go out with friends. Well, to be honest, me too.
And here's the next one, Mahima. As I was chessed off with the lockdown, I got thrilled to bits when I came to know that my husband is taking me out for dinner.
He really blew my mind. That's crazy, "blew my mind", "he blew my mind".
