A blessing in disguise or dime a dozen? Bite the bullet or bite off more than you can chew? The English language is riddled with colourful expressions that, to many (even native English speakers) can be quite mind-boggling! But learning the most important ones is easier than ever with Brainscape’s collection of idioms and proverbs flashcards, which will help you learn efficiently!
Become as sharp as a whip with these popular idioms and proverbs
Idioms add color, dimension, culture, and even humour to language. And because they are used so prolifically in written communications, literature, and everyday speech, mastering them is pretty important to mastering the English language!
Thankfully, Brainscape has vastly simplified the process with our collection of 300 of the most popular proverbs and idioms. Delivered by our intelligent, spaced repetition learning platform, Brainscape makes learning so much more efficient, convenient, and even fun than any traditional study method.
Plus, being accessible via Brainscape’s web and mobile app for Android or iOS, you can sneak in this practice anytime and anywhere, empowering you to learn as many new idioms and proverbs a day as you can manage (while also reviewing the ones you previously learned).
A bigger vocabulary, which includes a grasp of the English language’s most popular idioms and proverbs, goes the distance in helping you communicate more eloquently with peers and superiors; feel more confident in professional and academic environments; and BE a better, more efficient, and articulate communicator overall!
How does Brainscape help you learn faster and remember for longer?
The brain is hardwired to learn and remember information a certain way. The Brainscape™ flashcard app was born out of the question: what if we leveraged this hardwiring to help students learn more efficiently? Fueled by curiosity, our team of cognitive scientists from Columbia and Yale spent years developing a scientifically optimized learning platform to boost your learning.
