Excellent phrases, thank you Sabrah! I would be glad if you could answer the following questions: Has "not to be funny" the same meaning as "not gonna lie" and "to be mint" the same as "to be peachy"?
Peachy means great where as mint is more enthusiastic maybe. I think we use mint more in the U.K. than peachy. Not gonna life and not go be funny are similar but not gonna lie is maybe more direct. Thanks for your comment! Please share the video !
Hi, endearing Sabrah. The lesson is mint as usual. We watch your videos one by one every day. They're all spectacular and so useful. You're the best teachers in the world. Love you so much.
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! Lots of love to you both. So pleased you find our channel useful. If you think others will find our videos helpful then please share them xxx
fantastic lesson! Super practical! The last bit of this video really demonstrates to us how to use those expressions in our daily life! Thanks! You really are the bee's knees
Thank you so much Leila! I often make my British neighbour pleasantly surprise with these British expressions, words I learn from you! Thank you so much!
Dear Sabrah I'm writing a novel that begins in london, i'd like to know if in world war one london was very affected and which was the principle disease that killed more people. Very sincerely yours, Thank you very much for your help.
Many thanks teacher Sabrah for the lessons you give us . They are important to know about. I feel crap when i can't watch your videos. You are an outstanding and brilliant teacher.
Oh my gosh!!! I've been learning more from your videos coz they are hunky dory i would rather you kept teaching us my amazing teacher although I've got some fiver about me i don't care about
Hello Sabrah: I love these GB phrases, particularly the number 9 because our boss also often faff around, but we're saying it differently using similar 4 letters. :)
I @@LoveEnglishwithLeilaSabrah: I'm glad you're smiling and have a good sense of humor and fantasy. I'm discombobulated! My boss often hangs around and watching if everybody working. In the right-top corner on the screen is a button. If I click on and in, I'm here or not. So, she's a bit discombobulated too. In German, to say; unzusammenhangend! She's a bit beastly bitxx what makes her a bit incoherently bitchy or catty. Have a nice day!
Another amazing video from a fabulous teacter , that was mint , no doubt . You were complaining the other day of feeling under the weather , hopefully , you're quite well . Best wishes from my heart of hearts .

Hey Sabra . Do you use the word " shattered " to mean extremely upset as well ? there is something I need to explain please . Do we have to check all of the different meanings of a word , written in a dictionary ? say the word" smart " for example , Cambridge dictionary gives so many meanings , I believe not all of them are used . help out please . PS : thanks for the amazing video .
I don't know if your dog is the bee's knees, but for sure is very lucky! ;) :) The translation of "faffing around" in Italian I think would be : cazzeggiare, which is very very informal ... :) Anyway since I was using the word in Italian, quite a lot, today I've learned the english equivalent word! I'll use it at the office very soon! :):):) Thank you and have a happy new year!

英語学習もある程度日常会話を身に付けたあとで、こうした熟語を本格的に覚えていくわけですが、ここではイギリス英語の表現を教えていますが、アメリカ英語を学んできた私としてはあまりそんなに違いはないように感じられます。熟語を知っていると高度な会話を身に付けることができるので私のように英語好きな人間にはもってこいです。一つ私の方から熟語を教えたいと思っております。これはイギリスとアメリカ英語でも使う表現です。Ｉt iｓ a piece of cake.これはＩt iｓ eaｓy.という意味です。あまりこの表現は私は使いません。単純にeasyと言います。熟語は覚えていて損することありませんが、まずは普通の表現からですね！
Amazing idioms uh gave me.....I have been facing problem getting share things with people as I lack too much in environment...can you please suggest m ways...how to get more and more people into learning!
I remember going to the Uk for the first time and getting annoyed af when people would ask me "you alright" like why don't I look alright?? I would be absolutely fine and happy...then realized its just how they say hello🤣

Thanks for sharing...謝謝分享🙏
The American version of “spanner in the works” is “to throw a wrench into your plans”. I guess we like to be a little more figuratively literal
I am focusing on your hair, it’s so amazing.😊
So am I.So much. And the pronunciation. Amazing.
You are a big step for me at being great at English because I have got improved since I found you.

Usefull expressions. Most of them I'll never heard in my life before
. But I learnt only the school English.
And that was it.
Hello Pretty Sabrah, all your lessons are amazing. I will practice the phrases with my coworkers. Thank you a lot for sharing your knowledges...
Thank you! Please share the lesson if you think others will enjoy it! 😊
“To pull someone’s leg”, this idiom also exists in Japan. But the meaning is different, it means to cause somebody trouble. That’s interesting.
Oh how interesting! Thank you for sharing this comment 😊
One of the most influential & useful videos I've ever come across while working on my advanced English learning. 👏👏👏
Thank you so much for this lovely comment! If you enjoyed the video please share it with others ❤️
Actually, u are so expert in teaching, u deserve something more than thanks, but a love hugging.
Thank you very much! Really pleased you liked the video! Please share with others 😊💕
I've been binge watching your channel and I love it. "I'm stuffed" "in a pickle" and "pulling your leg" are very American too.
Loved the clips as examples 😉
In Italy to faff around can be translated "cincischiare"... could you try and pronounce it? 😊
Oh really !! Haha that is funny! I am tying but pronouncing is hard ! 😂😂

Hello Mrs Sabrah!
Hello Mrs Leila!
How have you been?
Can I use 20 phrases in formal or informal situations? Could you please tell me ?
A lot of these are informal so we wouldn’t recommend using them in formal situations no!
Thanks for this video now I can improve on my English language!😊
You are doing a wonderful job. I fancy your lesson .
I´ve been faffing around for a while by watching some videos on UA-cam, but now I´ll get to work. Enough is enough!

Hey Sabra . Do you use the word " shattered " to mean extremely upset as well ?
there is something I need to explain please . Do we have to check all of the different meanings of a word , written in a dictionary ?
say the word" smart " for example , Cambridge dictionary gives so many meanings , I believe not all of them are used .
help out please .
PS : thanks for the amazing video .
Yes shattered can also be used to mean very upset - usually devastated. 😊 It is a good idea to check the various meanings. Thanks for your comment! 💕
