#215 Animal Idioms You Can Use in Daily ...

Michael Lavers
About this episode

In this week's episode, we're exploring the fun topic of animals, except we're not learning simple animal words or noises they make. This is more advanced.

We'll be looking at a few animal idioms, expressions and phrasal verbs that you can use in your daily life. Native speakers use these all the time! Along with each expression, I'll share a cool fact about the animal, as well as an example from my own life to give some context.
