Hello everyone, welcome to this video. I'm going to be discussing the topic of idiomatic expressions in English. You may have heard those phrases that seem to make no sense at first glance, but are widely used by native English speakers. These are called idioms. So why do we use them in English language? Well, idioms serve as a way to express ideas or sentiments in a concise and creative manner. They add color and personality to the language. But where do they come from? Some idioms have historical origins dating back to ancient times. Others are derived from literature or popular culture. For example, the saying reigning cats and dogs originated in 17th century Europe when it rained heavy and would wash away all the pets from the roofs. By understanding the origins of these idioms, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the language and its evolution over time. So the next time you hear an English speaker use an idiom, make sure to appreciate its unique history. Thank you for watching this video and don't forget to subscribe to my channel for more interesting language-related content. See you in the next video.
