American English Idioms Podcast introduces adult English learners to common American English idioms, one per episode, along with four related expressions in each episode's Idiom Bank. Each episode follows the same four-part structure, so learners always know what to expect:
• Listen to the Target Idiom box first. It gives the idiom, its meaning, where it comes from, and an example sentence.
• Listen to the Dialogue aloud. Notice how the idiom is used naturally in conversation.
• Study the Idiom Bank. These four related expressions share the podcast episode's theme and are also used in the practice exercise.
• Complete the Practice Exercise by filling in each blank with the idiom that fits best, then check yourself right away — the answer follows each sentence.
