Learn 13 English IDIOMS from the theatre
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 чер 2024
- The great English playwright Shakespeare famously wrote, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” It is true that life is like a theatre play, isn’t it? And in fact, there are plenty of expressions we use that are related to theatre language but mean other things. In this lesson, I will introduce you to a variety of idioms and metaphors from the world of theatre which are used in everyday life. You will learn the meaning of “to upstage someone”, “break a leg”, “hard act to follow”, “to make a song and dance”, “to be in the limelight”, and more. These expressions are commonly used by native English speakers. Let’s get the show on the road!

Nowadays is very hard to find such an intelligent person as Gill. Thank you for all your efforts which you give us(especially for me)!
Efforts being the operative word here. Something I have noticed too, the effort she makes to make us undesrtand things is very admirable. As someone who has never been to a theatre - this is very helpful.
2 types of teachers that make me want to learn
1. Funny teachers
2. This kind of teachers, like Gill!
Metal Otaku me too , and which funny teachers you know?
She is one in a million, i love the way she teaches., funny and serious at the same time :)
Madame Gill is the best teacher ever I see:funny and serious at the same time.
@@tamkopubgm1158 Ronnie from "learn English with Ronnie", Aly from "Learn English with Papa Teach Me", and Tim from "BBC Learning English". They are awesome, they always make me laugh my head off. I strongly recommend those teachers.
MsJill is the best ever one Iever met!lwish all the best in her activity.
J' adore ! With you, I understand everything. I'm 58 years old, it's never too late to learn. With you it's so easy. Thank you.
I love her. Her accent, her voice, her light English sense of humour I detect here and there. In some odd way, Gill doesn't even seem all that foreign to me, although her accent at first did: I didn't know what or where it was from. I guess I always had the idea English people spoke what I had learnt at school which was RP. I used to have an English penfriend back in the days when people sent letters to each other. I also had American penpals. They were so simple, straightforward and boring, whereas with my English West Midlands penpal I could actually have fun and give and take little tender "insults". A bit of irony or sarcasm here and there, things like that. She taught me a great deal and I am for ever grateful. (I'm Finnish, a Finn from Finland.)
She is from the east Midlands but now lives in London so her accent has a slight twang.
samonen: I couldn't agree more with your excellent commentary. Greetings from the underground.
She's just the sweetest lady I've ever heard. Bless you Ms Gill!
Yeah, i agree. I love you Gill. Thanks from my hearth

Amazing teacher.. I love her...
Me too¡
Dear Gill-sensei, thank you for your theatre idiom lesson. It is always with great joy that I come to your youtube videos. I appreciate the quotation from Shakespeare. I sometimes wonder why I love pessimistic lines like this one so much. Come to think of it, many songs, lyrics, poems, novels etc. are both pessimistic and attractive. " Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player , that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and is heard no more."
Brilliant ! Thank you for sharing!
Dear Gill, thank you!
l learn many rules with your help.Thanks for your excellent explonations.
I'm so glad to see you again!
