Mamma I started learning English from you since 2019. When I started I was so much weak at English. I can't speak it at that time because of lack of confidence. But when I saw your videos I really enjoyed it a lot. Learning with you is a enjoyment for me. I really love your way of teaching mamma. Love you so much mamma. God bless you.

Here are some more idioms (don't know if you've covered them before or not) that are often used in the workplace: throwing someone under the bus, in the weeds, don't burn bridges, put it on the back burner, bring them up to speed, burn the midnight oil, burning the candle at both ends, rock the boat. There are many more but those are the ones that I thought of immediately.

An idiom from 🖤BLΛƆKPIИK💗's song 'You never know' "You never know unless you walk in my shoe" Which means you would never understand my sufferings and situations I had faced. And also the full idiom is "Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoe" which means before judging someone, you must understand his/her struggles and hardwork
