Do you know these 5 C2 idioms? 🏆

[@nestorherrera1849]

It was in the cards and beyond my wildest dreams, that I needed a change pace, that is why I landed on this Channel that obviously ,It's not a man's land, on the contrary, it has made my day, it has not made me hit the roof, not even put me off stride. I want to clear the air by saying that I don't feel down in the dumps with this site, besides I don´t have a to bone pick up with the Administrator (Katia) as she has proved to be a kind and gentil facilator of the English language who speaks it tenderly . A voice( I love her Spanish accent) that conquers viewers in thick and fast, making this Channel splash on KZbin.. We must ask Katia not to throw in the towel but continue editing new videos that will contribute to fall into place in which all her followers will be proud and engaged day in, day out to develop and perform either English skill. Thanks Nadia for your teaching . Followers will be with you shine or rain!

[@englishbits]

And I've just learned the expression "today years old" thanks to you. It's great to keep learning sth new every day. Thanks for your comment, Cas!

[@casmartin790]

@@englishbits Thank you too for translating them to spanish as I'm an English teacher living in Andalusia and it always helps if I can give my students a translation and better for me as my spanish is not so great : )

[@casmartin790]

[@alexiazottu7208]

Lovely selection of idioms!!! My favourite is to burn the midnight oil, I used to that for every exam during my studies :))

[@englishbits]

Me too, Alexia!! 📚😴

[@MyLittleEnglishPage]

Nice lesson! I really like the expressions "better late than never" and "call it a day" 😉

[@englishbits]

Call it a day or call it a night is also one of my favourite! 🌇

[@MohammadMakhlouf-p9x]

Thank u miss

[@Theyoutuberpolyglot]

I have to burn the midnight oil, as I have an exam tomorrow. Studying in the last minute isn’t a good idea 💡. It is just an example

[@Carolinemoonway]

Great video! It’s very useful. But, (hehehe) I have a question, is the first idiom American and the rest of them are British or the rest apply in American and British context? Thank you for this video, I love learning idioms, I think it’s another way to know a culture. Note: I follow you on Instagram 😋

[@englishbits]

I'm glad you liked these 5 C2 idioms. The rest of the idioms can be used both in the American and British English. 😀

[@fazliddinsaidaxmadov6014]

Yep that's perfect idioms let's make another one

[@englishbits]

Sure! There will be a new edition with more advanced idioms soon! 😄

[@rifineoamazigh9088]

I have a bone to pick with you, your KZbin Chanal is for everybody and not just for a Spanish speakers😜

[@englishbits]

Everybody is welcome to English Bits!! 🤗

[@ayhancapan]

Not only i burnt the candle at both ends, i also burnt the midnight oil :D

[@englishbits]

Such a funny example! Let me make a tiny correction. It's an inversion, so it will be "not only did I burn...". 🔥

[@ayhancapan]

[@isaacdiaz3221]

I laughed on my inside because I couldn't realize you were Spaniard at the beginning. (Sí, evidentemente soy español y estaba planeando sacar el C1/C2 de inglés pronto :P).

[@englishbits]

Surprise, surprise! I hope my channel can help you.

Your videos so helpful! Plus you are so pretty, well dressed, nice, clever.

[@englishbits]

Thank you so much for this super nice message. You've made my day!! 😁

[@dannydunhill7078]

Do you use C2 idioms daily or why they are called C2 idioms? I find them quite easy to learn, that means I am near C2 level? :-D

[@englishbits]

This level is determined by the Cambridge Dictionary. 📕 And yes, they are common idioms that can be used daily. 🤓

[@dannydunhill7078]

@@englishbits I see. Theres an advanced book of idioms that contains 1000 idioms approximately, which is a huge number. I think I dont even know such an amount of idioms in my mother language, but I am determined to obtain C2 level of English, so I will put all my energy into learning it :-D.

[@englishbits]

Yes, there is a link to the book with advanced idioms in the description box: English Idioms in Use. 💪

[@darkforce2669]

What was the language in 2:21?

[@englishbits]

I suppose Spanish.

[@arnaldomartin5015]

"I always liked going south somehow it feels like going downhill" Tolkien, Lord of the Rings, Treebeard. The meaning is not the same respect to the idiom

[@englishbits]

Exactly, in American English it means "to fail". 😱

[@the_doomcliff]

I find your English pronunciation to have some Russian features in it. It's interesting)

Hello! Could be cause I was born in the Ukraine.
