"Full of beans" and "cost an arm and a leg" are also American expressions. "Throw a spanner in the works" has an American version of throwing a wrench (or monkey wrench) in the works or plans. Murphy's law is an American thing. Never heard it called sods law. Usually, in American, "waffle" in speech refers to not taking a position on either of two sides of some issue. In American, legging it means walking or running. Bees knees has been in use off and on, in the states since at least the 1950s, though unusual these days. On "shotgun" you're wrong. That means claiming the front passenger seat. Dibbs means a claim on anything. He has dibbs on x.

Can you please make some videos on British long vowels and short vowels?

[@j.kassai6283]

Could you specify in more details when and in which circumstances these expressions would be usable?

[@jayrosshlegaspi4168]

It is like idiomatic expressions, is it? Thanks BTW💗

[@parveshsharma3222]

Please start a podcast for listening practice

[@elizasan37]

And about your course, Is that a one-by-one lesson or just a available video and send it to a student?

[@SpeakEnglishWithChris]

The course is taught via videos on my website. They are not one-on-one classes.

Hello teacher, I want to change my accent to be a good speaker. Is it sure for 60 days that I can change my accent to look like a native speaker? I am so confuse how it is.

[@SpeakEnglishWithChris]

Yes I believe that if you complete the programme, you can learn to speak with a native-like accent in that time, if you complete the exercises, because it covers all aspects of the sounds and pronunciation of sentences in English

[@StuJones-gn7te]

As an American, I've always found it annoying that non native English speakers think yanks and brits can't understand each other. Sometimes, at all. My ex wife used to ask me if I could understand Lister and Rimmer on Red Dwarf. She was German and like most Germans, had been taught that English and American are two different languages. They're not. They barely qualify as dialects.

[@docreggiefirefox4811]

Thanks a lot..... but never use that "cost a bomb" expression when your in an airport or in a airplane....you'll be in a bloody hell if someone in authority or even a flight attendant for that matter. hehehe...great job. Cheers!

"Bob's your uncle" meant hilarious to me. Lovely Chris. You are amazing in the command of your language, mother tongue.
