  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • Presentation #4- Opening
    1 PRESENTATION #4- OPENING Good afternoon fellow club members and friends. Today we hope to enlighten you in regards to two aspects of Nelson’s and Jeanette’s lives. The first is in regard to clarifying that the love that existed between these two people was real. To accomplish this we will report actual private and sensitive quotations from both parties and you can draw your own conclusions as to the validity of their love. Most are not from their early romance days when they might be expected, but after their love had been ongoing for years. This was a life-long love between these two passionate human beings. The tragedy of living in an era of Victorian attitudes took a toll. It is a shame that in this age where their private life would be accepted as perfectly normal, there are those who still insist on judging it by Victorian morals and refute their love with salacious terms as “adulterous”! That term disappeared from our vocabulary back in the sixties! Their love was so powerful that they had to live two lives, public and private. We are going to take just a brief look at their private life and take a modern and tolerant position of what they had to overcome but not give up the love they had for one another. Any woman today would feel as Jeanette did if they could just experience a little of the love she received. And no doubt there are modern men today that would be overwhelmed to be as confident as Nelson was in the love he received from his Jeanette.

The title which this httle volume bears, sufficiently explains the reason of its appearance, and whatever small claims it may be able to advance for originality in a theme so often and so ably handled by experts in the folk-lore and the popular music of their country. I have no pretensions either to the scientific knowledge or to the curious literary research which might enable me to compete with these men of skill, and to share in any part of the praise which they have so justly earned; I only thought I might do some good, in an age urged by various stimulating forces to seek after what is new rather than to hold by what is true, if I should present, in a sort of dramatic totality, the wealth of moral, intellectual, and aesthetical nutriment of the best kind that lies stored in our heritage of national song.

Since their composition four hundred years ago, Shakespeare’s plays and poems have traveled the globe, inviting those who see and read his works to make them their own. Readers of the New Folger Editions are part of this ongoing process of “taking up Shakespeare,” finding our own thoughts and feelings in language that strikes us as old or unusual and, for that very reason, new. We still struggle to keep up with a writer who could think a mile a minute, whose words paint pictures that shift like clouds. These expertly edited texts are presented to the public as a resource for study, artistic adaptation, and enjoyment. By making the classic texts of the New Folger Editions available in electronic form as The Folger Shakespeare (formerly Folger Digital Texts), we place a trusted resource in the hands of anyone who wants them.
