概要
Have you ever heard a native English speaker say "spill the beans" or "get cold feet" and had absolutely no idea what they meant? You're not alone.
In this episode of Coastal Conversations, host Susan is joined by Anna to unpack five common English idioms — the funny ones, the confusing ones, and the ones with surprisingly dramatic origin stories. Along the way, Anna attempts to guess what each idiom means... with mixed results.
In this episode:
- Spill the beans
- Get cold feet
- Steal someone's thunder
- Bite off more than you can chew
- Get the hang of it
Perfect for upper-intermediate and advanced English learners (B2/C1) who want to understand the idioms they hear in real conversations, films, and professional settings.
📘 Learning materials, transcript, and vocabulary exercises are available on Susan's website at seasidecollective.net.
🎧 Coastal Conversations is an English learning podcast for serious learners.
