Idioms are a fascinating and colorful part of the English language. Learning idioms goes beyond learning vocabulary. It is about learning the culture, as they reflect social norms, beliefs, attitudes, and emotions. They highly affect fluency, but they are quite difficult to teach and learn.

One of the reasons why idioms are tricky is because there are so many! So where should you start? With the most common ones! According to a corpus-based study, where they analyzed the frequency of different idioms in today’s American English among over 520 million words, these 10 idioms are among the most frequent ones in today's American English.

Effective communication goes beyond vocabulary and grammar. Oftentimes, the meaning of certain expressions will change based on the context, tone, and culture. Cross-cultural communication struggles are a source of frustration, hindered productivity, and poor team work.

The first step is to increase your Cultural Intelligence (CQ) and learn about other cultures. This episode will help you decipher what Americans really mean during casual conversation.
