Idioms are expressions that are used every day but don' t mean what the words seem to indicate. No spring chicken, for example, has nothing to do with chickens. Rather, it means not being young any more. Teacher Josh: English Idioms explains what 300 of the most widely used English idioms mean in an easy-to-learn, memorable way. The entry for each idiom features a cartoon that depicts how it is used, plus an example and explanation in English and Mandarin. Readers can also scan a QR code to access a funny video by Teacher Josh, further explaining the idiom in Chinese and English.
