What are idioms? When to use idioms?
An idiom is a phrase or expression that has a figurative, rather than literal, meaning.
Idioms can be used to express feelings, emotions, and states of being in a creative and interesting way.
Idioms are often used in everyday conversations and in literature to add color and texture to what is being said.
Examples of idioms include: "it's raining cats and dogs", "piece of cake", "caught red-handed", "in a nutshell", and "let the cat out of the bag".
High school students should use idioms to add interest and spice to their writing, as well as to their conversations.
Idioms can also be used to emphasize a point and to make a statement more memorable.
Idioms should be used in moderation, as overusing them can make them seem cliche or tired.
