In this lesson, I'm going to talk about some common idioms.

These air common American English idioms for your reference in idiom is a set expression that doesn't mean exactly what the words in the expression means.

These air set phrases with special meaning.

So today I'm going to introduce a few Let's get started.

The first expression, the first idiom, is the expression I feel under the weather.

So you use this when you feel sick like I'm feeling under the weather today or he's feeling under the weather today.

You can also change this verb to look if you want to make a guess about the way someone else feels you can say you look under the weather like in this example sentence.

A bit means a little, and here you're looking means like it seems that right now, your appearance now suggests that you don't feel well.

But this is a friendly and casual expression you can use to say.

So feel under the weather to feel under the weather or toe.

If you're just guessing based on someone's appearance means that you don't feel well or someone seems like they might be sick.

The next idiom is I've put in parentheses here.

Sometimes I could eat a horse, I could eat a horse.

So here, you see, could suggesting possibility this part, we often drop.

So sometimes we just say I could eat a horse or maybe a different large animal like I could even elephant, for example.

Basically, this idiom means I'm very hungry, that's all.

It's possible for me to eat a large animal, an animal as large as a horse, or is an elephant or something.

We don't really change the animals so much.

But typically people say horse, this is a little bit of an old fashioned expression.

Okay, let's move on to the third idiom for this lesson.

This one also is a little bit old fashioned, but you might still here.

It's raining cats and dogs just means it's raining heavily.

There's a lot of water coming down, so it's raining cats and dogs.

This does not mean they're cats and dogs in the street or coming down.

Okay, let's go on to another one that's a little more commonly used.

This expression, this idiom is that or it or these those whatever that costs.

Physically body parts, an arm and a leg that costs an arm and a leg.

This expression means that's very expensive.

We use this for something that is extremely expensive or perhaps more expensive than we expected.

So an example of this would be my new phone cost me an arm and a leg.

My new phone cost me an arm and a leg, so I paid ah lot of money for my new phone here.

My new phone cost me an arm, and the leg means I paid a lot of money for my new phone.

So an arm and a leg, these air key parts of our body.

So we use them in this expression to show that something was really, really expensive.

A lot of our resource is to pay for this item, so something costs an arm, and a leg means something is really expensive.

We use them together always for this expression.

This idiom is to pull someone's chain or to pull someone's leg.

Yank is like a quick, short pole toe to yank something.

But to pull is a little more like smooth.

Ah, but to pull someone's chain or to yank someone's chain or leg, these expressions all mean to be joking.

So when you're joking with someone in a conversation and you want to show, uh, I'm don't mean anything by it.

If you're lying to someone for a joke, you can use this expression.
