Explore the figurative side of a language
An idiom can carry a meaning that a literal translation misses. Explore the idiom entries available for your language and level, and use their meanings and examples as a starting point for practice. Learning individual idioms does not by itself establish fluency.
How it works
- Read the intended meaning rather than relying only on literal translation
- Use the example to understand the phrase's context
- Save the idioms you want to practise again
Frequently asked questions
- Are idiom entries and translations available for every selection?
- Coverage depends on the language, level and available content. Not every selected entry has every translation field published. The app's availability notices distinguish missing published content from a loading failure.
