Hello everyone, in English we are learning about idioms. Idioms - say things that are understood in ordinary English and do not mean what they say. Idioms are not meant to be taken literally; e.g ‘My teacher is the bomb!’. We are asked to find the meaning of idioms that are asked to answer. Here is the column where I work out my answers or answer the questions.
Figurative Column | Literal Column |
a.Just chill out dude! It means: Calm down. | |
b. ‘He is driving me up the wall!’ It means: He is making me so angry. | |
c. ‘His nose is out of joint’ It means: He is getting annoyed | |
d. The teacher is a real scream It means: It means that they are humorous or funny. | |
e. What is she cooking up in her mind right now? It means: What is she thinking about. | |
f. He gave her the eye. It means: it’s like looking at someone/ you are looking at someone sexually |
The literal column is where we have to pick an idiom and make them into a picture where we take them seriously. Here are the pictures that I made.
