Why Idioms are Important
Native speakers use idioms on a daily basis. In many cases, an idiom is the only way to express an idea in a short and clear way.
Take, for example, the idiom ‘burn your bridges’
If you are leaving your job and someone tells you to do it in a nice way and 'don't burn your bridges'. They actually mean something like:
"Don’t leave in a way that annoys people and makes them so mad with you that you can never have another opportunity again with the company or a relationship with the people you worked for there."
So we can say that ENTIRE sentence, OR we can say just 4 words.
'Don’t burn your bridges.' 🔥

Every idiom in this course has been carefully selected because it is an idiom that is actually used on a daily basis, and often would be used instead of any other words.
