Masterfully crafted. Thank you very much! (:

@oJKBo actually colour is how the rest of the English speaking world spells it. Only the U.S spells it like Color. Just like how they pronounce Z like zee while the rest of the world says Zed

[oJKBo]

you spelled color wrong

[Soysolci]

VEry usefull!!! I Am A Spanish speaker and I need Idioms with souns. I'm studying the English teacher collage and I must present idioms with sound and I'm totally lost. Thanks!!!!

[LiteracyLabyrinth2]

Thanks - I will use this for my students today. Great resource!

[lovelypuppy75]

@vjunco you can practise with me. I'm not a native English speaker but I'm watching Linguaspectrum's videos. So basically, I'll understand you. :)

[frankovich213]

Very good but wouldn't this be confusing for non-English speakers?

Wouldn't it be easier to understand if you told them that these are sayings instead of idioms, and then give a direct meaning of each one?

For eg. 'I'm in the Red' refers to old fashioned account statements which would display your overdrawn or unpaid account in red ink. It is now used as way to say you owe money.

I can only speak for myself of course, but trying to decipher these confusing sentences would be demotivating for me.

[Linguaspectrum]

@frankovich213 Did you do the extras?

[Salaamatzz]

[hiroshi19720310]

This is very interesting lecture....honestly, to memorize lots of English idioms or vocabulary is bit hard for me. ..I wonder everybody here to learn English, how do they do that?

[Linguaspectrum]

@hiroshi19720310 Thanks for watching the video. I'm glad you found it interesting. To help you learn, I created EXTRAS for each video. These give you more information and self-test exercises that really will help you to learn English. The way to learn these idioms is not to try to memorise them but to use them.

[vjunco]

@Linguaspectrum For me it's complicated 'cause I dont have noone to practice, I live where the English it's a foreign language, but I try to practice with myself. I hope someday travel to England,

[satsumamoon]

molto utile! bravissimo!

[pabeleks]

Extremely useful stuff and presented in really funny and interesting way, thanks ;)

[joe59788]

This vid is priceless, I'm a native English speaker and I love you prepared this its actually quite captivating. The way things glide in and out is just odd. I never heard of a red letter day though we do sometimes circle important dates, but we but a circle in the whole box. At least that's more conventional in the states. Also I have never heard of browned off...pissed off yes, brown no. Green fingers=green thumb in the states

[joe59788]

I like how the Brits spell color colour

[yurama2001]
