Hi there friends!
Here is a video for daily life! These idioms will make you sound more friendly, warm and approachable – and of course more native! They are also considered “advanced” English because they demonstrate a more impressive knowledge and command of the language. These lovely idioms are for daily situations but also deeper conversations π
As usual I am teaching you English that is IN USE today and used by my friends, family, and people I come across in daily life. The accent is the British accent usually found in the South of England, which is called Modern Received Pronunciation. I hope you enjoy my video!

My classmates at the language school in London were multinational, diverse and lively! then I saw some works of the Impressionists in museums of Paris, and the works of Vermeer in the Mauritshuis in the Netherlands, and I was impressed.
Variety is the spice of life!π
What a lucky man how have you?πβ€
Hello, Katharine. I could enjoy very much again with your today's post. Most impressive idiom for me should be, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I guess that has similar meaning with "There is no accounting for tastes", right? I suppose "Beauty is in …" is much more elegant way and I'd like to use it some day when I am in such a situation as to comment the same. Have a nice dayβͺ

~~~~ Fine-tuned Arrow ~~~~
Drinking your idioms with care and delight,
I get drunk from you, spellbinding Katharine;
Magnificent muse, exquisite Essex Queen
Whose fine-tuned arrow plunged into my heart.
Pronouncing your name, whether loud or low,
It is a long sigh, from my chest coming
That tonight will reach your patio, your window,
Bearer of love words and of sea breezes.

An idiom from my side <33
Such a nice lesson .I really like watching your videos.What you teach are practical and easy to learn.
Awesome Katherine. Your expressions are more attractive than your teaching..!!π
I have a problem with English.
When somebody speaking about anything, I couldn't understand after five words.
How can I overcome this problem?
a spice of life π ππ
Thank you teacher β€
Hello, Katharine.π I find those idioms both interesting and useful, yet most of which I wasn't familiar with. I'd say variety has been the spice of life since I came across your channel, which I absolutely find appealing and engaging. My most favorite one is No.5, which does sound lovely and so true. I'm such a logophile. I'd be delighted if you could roll out more and more. Thanks a bunch.π
Thank you! "Same deep water as you" of The Cure from "Disintegration" is in my head for the rest of the day. Though was guessing the meaning before, it is important you say it. β€
Thank you Teacher β€
Very interesting and instructive lesson .Is very good. Have a good weekend and happy day.
What an amazing way of explaining! Keep it up dear. π
Thanks a lot β€β€β€β€β€β€
Hi Katharine, you did it once more, it was a so interesting video, I have to give credit to the spider too that made you so expressive when it appear! It would be so nice if you can include the two "a" topic as you mentioned in future videos, thanks for the happiness that you irradiate each friday, bye!
Thank you Kathie! You're so lovely π₯°
Dear Katherine,
Idioms in this lesson are the perfectly gifted to me by your great personality.
This adds spice to my chat .
HOPE TO SEE YOU.
Regards.
Thanks,
I live in Bangladesh
The best teacher. I'm learning a lot with you, Kath!
I hadn't finished writing my text, and I sent it, by mistake. I wanted to say that I like the sound of Katharine better than Kat.
You're an English teacher. I spotted the video, and I thought you looked pretty. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Meaning, I suppose, that there was already an image, in my memory, that made me put you in the category of pretty women. Pretty woman, walking down the street! She's walking back towards me. Mercy! Sorry, I got distracted. It's interesting that your name is Katharine, and, it's pronounced as in French for Catherine. Catherine Deneuve is a French actress, if I spell her name correctly. I wonder if I could bring myself to calling you Kat. I find the r&<<
@katharine mam the way you explain was simple awesome, especially those difficult words even though they are hard to spell its a "cake walk" to you, you deserve best linguist of the decade!!!!!π₯³
Hi Catherine! Thanks again for wonderful lesson. Idioms play a great role in language. They add a beauty to it. They always have a symbolic meaning rather than literal one.
Sheβs a beauty in the eye of her partner cuz she always wears her heart on her sleeve π
Amazing idioms indeed β€
Lovely to see you β€

Hi darling best wishes from NZEALAND..πππyoure wonderful β€β€
Yt lifeβll be great Katπ₯°.
Katharine deserves a million subscribers!! π π π
Dear Kathy …. Today's class is fantabulous as usual. You wore your heart on your sleeve because you poured emotions & feelings very fantastically through facial expressions and gestures to tell these idioms. Thanks a lot for teaching us in a funny way..
I find this very interesting. I also want to say we do use idioms every now and then in official letters but tend to write the simple definition after the idiom in parentheses.
Example: Our team needs to be trained in dealing with the locals. The locals have different cultural backgrounds that can cause friction within our team; our team is unaware of the localsβ social obstacles that can arise. Our teams needs to be fully aware of their culture and develop a βthick skinβ (an ability to keep from getting upset or offended by the things other people say and do) when criticized by the locals.
Very good video,i am from ind
Great job Thank you Mam π
