ESL Idioms
Fairmont and Towne Acres ESL Teacher
 
Idioms are groups words that really don't mean what they are saying.

For example:

This idiom is "a piece of cake". 

Excuse me? 

Is this idiom sweet like cake? 
Do we bake an idiom like a cake? 
Do we eat an idiom like cake? 
No, we do not do any of these things with an idiom.  We can see that a literal interpretation of each word does not give us the true meaning of this idiom.

This is a piece of cake.  =  This is easy.
