>101 American English Idioms (2 eBooks+Audio)

>Title: 101 American English Idioms: Understanding and Speaking English Like an American
Author(s): Harry Collis
Publisher: McGraw-Hill

Pages: 135
Size: 64.88 Mb
Format: PDF + MP3
Quality: 44kHz/128kbps
Language: American English

101 American English Idioms takes the mystery out of these common U.S. expressions and explains their meanings in context. On the audio CD, native speakers read each of the 101 idioms, [+/-]

so you can hear how American English sounds and practice what you have learned.

What Americans really mean when they say . . .

Drive someone up a wall–annoy someone greatly
Raise a stink–protest strongly
Pull someone’s leg–fool someone
All thumbs–clumsy
Shoot the breeze–chat informally
Feel like a million dollars–feel wonderful
Duck soup–easy, effortless

Review
“I am a Bostonian who heard the recording from one of my English students. Dressed to the teeth is an expression I readily recognize, but I am more likely to read it than to hear it in everyday, modern conversation. Some of the expressions are probably regional, perhaps most from Northeastern section of the country. Of course the term American is often misused, and foreign visitors should be careful buying books claiming to teach American words or phrases.” An American woman (Arlington, MA USA)

American Idioms and Some Phrases Just for Fun: An ESL Meaning and Usage Workbook – Contains Both Practice Exercises and Tests. [+/-]

Intermediate-level ESL students can use this book to supplement classroom textbooks. It’s a reliable guide to help everyone comprehend the intricacies of idiomatic American English.

The literal meanings of such phrases as “raining cats and dogs,” “get on the ball,” “have a bone to pick,” “eat one’s words, and “kick the bucket” are likely to conjure peculiar images in any non-English speaker’s mind. These and dozens more phrases are explained, “translated” into more formal English, and repeated in various contexts. Also included are exercises designed to improve comprehension and fluency in informal American English.
