English Idioms With Videos By EnM-Learn (2019 Edition 1)

Idioms exist in every language. They are words or phrases that aren’t meant to be taken literally.  English idioms, proverbs, and expressions are an important part of everyday English.

Learning English idioms is fun, especially when you compare English idioms to the idioms in your own language. Because idioms are wise sayings. They offer advice about how to live and also transfer some underlying ideas, principles and values of a given culture / society. These sayings are called “idioms” – or proverbs if they are longer.
