Hello everyone and welcome back to English With Lucy.
Spring has almost sprung in England.
We've had some very, very sunny days, we've had a couple of rainy days, but I've been enjoying lots of dog walks and lots of runs in the countryside, as you might have seen on my Instagram.
I have been feeling so excited about spring, I cannot wait to see leaves on the trees, grass everywhere, flowers everywhere, and in the spirit of spring, I've decided to make a flower idioms video for you.
A lesson all about floral expressions that we use in British English and in American English.
This lesson is going to be really good for building your vocabulary, it will help with your reading, it will help you with your writing.
It will also help with your speaking and your listening, because you'll be able to understand what natives mean when they say these idioms.
Right, idiom number one is to come up or out smelling of roses.
To come up smelling of roses or to come out smelling of roses.
If somebody comes up smelling of roses, it means they emerge from a situation with their reputation undamaged.
