    “Birds of a feather flock together “ equivalent of "Tell me who is your friend I'll tell you who you are".
    I enjoyed the video. I always learn things from your videos.
    thank you!

      @Milo Juan thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
      I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

    This is great! Thanks! I've been teaching figurative language, and was searching up this very topic! I began realizing that some phrases seemed to be both metaphors and idioms. Were they idiomatic metaphors, or metaphoric idioms? This helped!

    What about personification? Could all these be grouped together as something ?

    Would "It's hot enough to fry and egg on the sidewalk," be considered a hyperbole as well as an expression?

  • @MohamedAmine-be4xt
    @MohamedAmine-be4xt 11 лет назад +1

    " There's no such thing as a free lunch"...
    and that's why we say "all free thing is not sweet"

    What about “cool as a cucumber”

    • @SlowEasyEnglish

      It can't be a simile or a metaphor and it isn't an idiom or a proverb so I guess I would classify that as a simple expression.

    • @mdzaheeruddin9854

      It is a simile! Similes are marked by words like as, like.
