Idioms are Wonderful...and Confusing!
Every single day we use idioms. They are so difficult sometimes and yet so necessary. Hopefully some of the links below will help you have a better understanding of these important phrases.
So, let's 'get down to brass tacks,' 'roll up our sleeves,' and 'tackle this task' of learning English idioms.
I've created two free downloadable idioms ebooks. Let me know what you think.
All of these Idioms websites in two PDF documents!
Download these two documents and SEND them to the World!!

- Agreed, I'd rather have all the information there instead of having to download something separately! Some more idioms would be nice too.

- Interesting lens... I think it would be much more popular if you actually included many of the popular idioms in your lens instead of having people download the pdf... just my 2 cents... :)

- Thank you for such a food for thinking Squidoo lens. (kidding!) I'm also a technical writer/editor (for the past 30 years)... and my wife has English as a second language. We also get a kick out of American idioms... and, I too, have considered writing a book of collected murdered idioms. Congrats on a Squidoo masterpiece!
