  • 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.

I didn’t really see him very much, hardly at all until the ‘80s and then I kind of reconnected with him in the ‘90s and we were social friends. I played golf with him. He’d been to my house several times in the ‘90s. Michael E. Miller (Washington Post): This one here or -- Brant: No. Miller: Connecticut? Brant: No, I’d been to Mar-a-Lago, not a member there but my sister is. I was a member of the golf course that he has here in Palm Beach but only because it was a corporate membership. And my partner at that time, who is my cousin, who’d been my partner for many, many years and whose father was my father’s partner, loves to play golf and he was a member. So I might have played there twice in my life, you know. So there’s no real connection then. You know, he would write me a letter every now and then, just talking about marriage or whatever and -- 1 Miller: Seeking your advice on things or -- Brant: No, no, no, no, no.
