@@mmmEnglish_Emma Hi Emma. Thank you so much for this great lesson. Now, I have a big doubt: How can you use these idioms with plural subjects like they or we or with plural nouns? For example, inagine I'm going do a business and my secretary recommends I do not do it because they are bad people. Should I say: Don't worry they are: * a man of his word * a man of their word or words * men of their word * men of their words What if they are a group of men and women: they are men and women of their word/ words?. And the same question goes with the other idioms on plural. Could you please help me?

I love your video. It’s important to know idioms because all languages are peppered with them, especially English. It’s good to know the idioms that describe people. I’m a retired ESL teacher and idioms were part of my lessons.

[@user-ur6nt8nd2b]

Me, I am early bird

[@HienThu-eh9iu]

I watched this video almost every sound. It likes I was listening to my native language 'cause I understood all of what you're talking (though I'm not really good English learner). For me, this is the most interesting English video of yours and I'm really into it right now! I've done my 30 idioms noting down, thank you so much❤️... And do you want to learn some English idioms when it's Vietnamese? I can give some, like "dark horse", when you were explaining the meaning of its, another phrases popped into my head "still waters run deep" hahaaa, and the person who is a dark horse is called "giấu nghề" in Vietnamese (though "giấu nghề" is an adjective). "Giấu" is hidden and "nghề" is their job in which they're specialized. I love this idiom so much! Another idiom which can be translated to Vietnamese is "cheapskate", it's called "keo kiệt" or "bủn xỉn" in Vietnamese (I don't know to explain it, even when I'm Vietnamese, I just know that "keo kiệt" means "cheapskate" and "cheapskate" means "keo kiệt" hahaaa). For more, I can say it "phá game" with the meaning of "party pooper" (though "game" is an English word, all teenagers in Viet Nam say that🤣)... The others is pretty hard to say in Vietnamese, so I'm really thankful for you to teach me these idioms. Now I can shoot the breeze with my friends about them! Hopefully you'll read my comment and I love uuuuuuuu❤️❤️❤️

[@toniarnold341]

Thank you thousand for this lesson with the idioms to refer to People. I’ve studied them several times to keep these in English in my brain. I can tell you that all my life I was an early bird. It was because of my job as a farmer. It was easy for me to get up early every morning and milk the cows

[@christianeokelly7668]

Will use them for my next lesson definitely. I can confirm that "Smart Alec" was used in the UK in the 1950's and would be considered quite old fashioned. Also "Goody Goody" does not exist in the UK, we have a "Goody two shoes" and it has exactly the same meaning. "Lucky duck" I am not at all familiar with this expression in the UK. It is also very interesting to get to learn Australian idioms from this end of the world. Thank you indeed.

Hello. Emma, ​​thank you so much for this interesting lesson. I consider myself a person who gets up early in the morning The proverb says "whoever gets up early in the morning God helps him" is like that all over the world. so many idioms I hope to learn them and remember them when you are in conversation or have the right moment.

Hi Emma, Thanks for the new lesson. Here are several people i have described for your comments. 1)Though John has a degree in accounting but he works as a sales in a furniture store. Very often he helps his next door fixing roof and even some plumbling problems. Much as jack-of-all-trades to me, you should try to get his opinion of your warping floors and he is a friendly guy to be with too. 2) My boss is a man of his word. If he promised you for a raise after the probation time, with your such exceptional performance, odds are high he will make it happen. 3) Peter is an early bird and always the first person comes to office and also brews us a large pot of hot coffee. If he does not show up by now he probably wont for today as he sometimes has to visit his clients once a month. 4) Ken was not sure if he wanted to be slaving away at the new job as his supervisor was such a back seat driver and never stopped checking on him and yet all had to be in his way. 5) The new comer, James is a lone wolf in our class. We have not heard a peep from him for already a week after the new school term began. 6) Sherlene is such a cheapskate and seldom she shares her snacks with friends. She usually will savor her own at a corner and only join the others when finished.

Absolutely using this video in my class tomorrow afternoon. Trying to help my students avoid the “English Student” label and idioms are the most impressive way to do that. When a student uses an idiom correctly, it often lets them break into a social group.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

What a fantastic way to help your students find there place amongst their peers! I love this! I hope they enjoy the lesson! 💖

Jack of all trades in Chile is like “maestro chasquilla” jaja but this word does not have a good connotation too , thanks emma I love your channel. Always learn something new with you ♥️ greetings from Chile 🇨🇱

Incredibly interesting lesson i hsve listened with great pleasure! Thank you so much! We have many similar idioms in Russian such as early bird, night owl, team player, man of the word, know-it-all and some similar. But we have an expression "dark horse" - the same words only in Russian and absolutely another meaning! The meaning of russian idiom is somewhat negative. We use it for example about new collegue or even boss who comes from nowhere and nobody knows nothing about him and nobody knows what we can expect from him.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

Thanks for sharing and for your lovely words! It's so interesting to learn how idioms can differ in different languages!

Gday Emma! Thanks a lot for sharing this video. I already watched your former videos about idioms and they'r amazing. I prepared a test for my students two days ago and most of them said, Mister it is a piece of cake ah ah hh. Here, in my country, we say as well it is easy like a cake or like a water.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

😂 😍 So would it be correct to say "it's as easy as water" or "it's easy like water" ??

[@aboubaraa80]

Yeah, you can say it is easy like a water or it is easy like pouring water to drink hhh😁😂😂😂

In Greece we used to say She is a cunning 🦊 fox. The opposite: she/is a sheep 🐏 a very good and innocent person. Another one is I slept like a bird. I sleep with ease and calm. We are also say a lone wolf same meaning. Party animal is used in English nowadays and has exactly the same meaning. It's so nice to coming back with another idiom lesson. My homework: about myself: I am a straight shooter! If I have something to tell you, I'll do it straight away! Although I might be considered as an extrovert person, sometimes I become a lone wolf and wanna take long walk alone. I am not an early bird 🐦 I prefer waking up late but I am not a night 🦉owl either! I am more in the in the middle... About the others: I really appreciate Anta's character. She is a good egg! He is not capable enough in his job buthe can do many things. I''d say he's jack-of-all-trades! She always talk about other people's such a busy body! I don't like Silvia. At school she was a teacher's pet and as she grows up, she becomes more and more a goody-goody! She is gonna be CEO's wife next month! She is such a gold digger! If you don't wanna join us please just stay home and stop being a party-pooper! Adam is definitely a backseat driver! He thinks he knows everything better than me!

Hi Emma :) Thanks a lot for this wonderful lesson :) Well, some of these idioms really describe my personality. For example, I'm a lone wolf. Especially while travelling. It feels much easier to organize the travel. Because sometimes, I may not meet in the middle with others. Also, I was one of the teacher's pets in the past :) While I was doing my master's degree, we had a teacher who supported the same football team as me. She would ask me to fix the exam dates and I'd say '' Oh sorry! We can't take the exam next Thursday. Because Fenerbahçe( my team) has a match that day'' The others would go nuts :) Those were the days... Anyway, thanks again. Wishing you a nice week. Greetings from Turkey.

[@mmmEnglish_Emma]

How great that you were able to recognised some of these idioms and the associated behaviours in yourself! I wonder if you're going to now be noticing them in other people too?

[@newloggers]

@@mmmEnglish_Emma Actually, I will be happy to do that with these great advanced idioms👍. I can find an example from my life for every single idiom☺️ Thanks a lot again for enriching my vocabulary 🙏
