Idioms for Kids Have you ever heard a phrase that seems kind of strange?
2
Something like, it's raining cats and dogs tonight. Or, I'm feeling blue.
3
How about, hitting the books?
4
Or, fish and visitors stink after three days.
5
Hmm, does it actually rain cats and dogs?
6
Can you feel the color blue?
7
Are there a bunch of people with hammers hanging around waiting to hit a bunch of books?
8
If you said, no way, you're right.
9
And what do fish and visitors have to do with each other?
10
Today, we're going to talk about something called idioms,
11
which are a part of something even bigger called figurative language.
12
Feeling a little confused?
13
Don't worry, we're here to help.
14
Today, we're going to learn all about idioms and how to use them.
15
Let's get started.
16
Before we dive into idioms,
17
we need to talk about what figurative language is.
18
Figurative language describes something in very colorful terms.
19
It uses comparisons between very different things,
20
like fish and visitors, to paint a picture for the hearer.
21
So, put on your thinking caps and let's explore some of these sayings.
22
Let's look first at the phrase,
23
fish and visitors stink after three days.
24
What does that mean?
25
Fish can be very yummy,
26
but what would happen if you left it out on the counter for three days?
27
It would begin to stink, wouldn't it?
28
What about visitors?
29
Visitors are wonderful to have over,
30
but after a few days,
31
it might get annoying to have to keep cooking for them,
32
cleaning up after them, and entertaining them.
33
In the saying, fish and visitors stink after three days,
34
fish and visitors are compared to each other to show that even though fish and visitors can both be good things,
35
after a while, they might stink or you might not want them around anymore.
36
Have you ever heard the phrase,
37
good things come to those who wait?
38
What about the saying, better late than never?
39
Or how about break a leg?
40
You may have read, heard,
41
or said one of these phrases before.
42
But what you might not know is that these sayings have a name.
43
They are called idioms.
44
And idioms are just one part of figurative language.
45
An idiom is a phrase or sentence that does not literally mean what it says.
46
When someone says, break a leg,
47
to someone else, they aren't actually telling that person to go break their leg.
48
That wouldn't be very nice.
49
In fact, the idiom break a leg is actually a nice thing to say to someone.
50
It means good luck.
51
If your friend is in a play or performance,
52
you could say, break a leg,
53
to wish them good luck.
54
The idiom, good things come to those who wait,
55
is just another way of telling someone to have patience.
56
And the saying, better late than never,
57
simply means that it's better to arrive late than to not come at all.
58
It costs an arm and a leg is an idiom that means that something is very expensive.
59
No one would buy anything if it really cost an arm or a leg.
60
No thanks, I'll keep my arms and legs, thank you very much.
61
Idioms are common expressions, which means that people use them often.
62
People in many different countries use idioms.
63
But a person in another country may not understand the meaning of an idiom used in the United States.
64
And, someone in the United States might not understand an idiom in Australia.
65
Idioms make sense to the people that live in that country.
66
Let's take a look at another example.
67
If your teacher tells you to make sure to study for the test and not cut any corners,
68
what do you think that means?
69
Is your teacher telling you not to cut the corners off of your assignment? That doesn't make sense.
70
Your teacher wants you to study for the test and do a good job.
71
So, to not cut corners must mean to do a good job and study hard.
72
If you cut corners, it means that you didn't do your best work and something hasn't been done well.
73
The idiom, don't cut corners,
74
is just another way of saying, don't take shortcuts.
75
Take your time and do things well.
76
Idioms can be a great way of expressing yourself.
77
The idiom, when pigs fly,
78
means that something is probably never going to happen.
79
Just like the fact that pigs probably won't ever fly.
80
As an example, let's look at two sentences.
81
One uses the idiom when pigs fly,
82
and the other does not.
83
There's never any extra money in the school budget to build a new school gymnasium,
84
so we'll never get one.
85
Or, there's never any extra money in the school budget.
86
We'll get a new gymnasium when pigs fly.
87
Which example do you like better?
88
The second sentence is more humorous and interesting than the first.
89
It also emphasizes the point that it is never going to happen.
90
Idioms can also be found in songs, movies, and TV shows.
91
Look for idioms in books you read and shows you watch.
92
Also, try using idioms the next time you're talking to your family or friends.
93
Hold on!

이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 하는 이유는?
이 비디오는 어린이를 위한 관용어를 중심으로 설명합니다. 관용어는 일상적인 대화에서 자주 사용되며, 자연스러운 의사소통을 개발하는 데 중요한 역할을 합니다. 이 비디오를 통해 다양한 관용어를 배우면, 실제 대화 상황에서 더 유창하게 표현할 수 있습니다. 영어 쉐도잉을 통해 그들의 발음과 억양을 자연스럽게 익힐 수 있으며, 이는 영어 발음 교정에도 큰 도움이 됩니다. 비디오를 보며 따라 말해보는 것은 자신감을 향상시키고, 영어 회화 실력을 높이는 효과적인 방법입니다.
문법 및 문맥 속 표현
- It's raining cats and dogs. - 이 표현은 비가 많이 내리다는 뜻입니다. 직접적인 의미는 아니지만, 비 오는 모습을 생동감 있게 전달합니다.
- Feeling blue. - 이 표현은 우울하다는 의미로, 색깔을 통해 감정을 표현하는 방식입니다. 이러한 표현을 배우면 감정 표현에 풍부함을 더할 수 있습니다.
- Break a leg. - 이 관용어는 '행운을 빌어라'라는 의미로, 상반된 의미를 지닌 표현들 중 하나입니다. 이런 표현을 습득하면 사람들과 소통할 때 더 부드럽고 자연스럽게 대화할 수 있습니다.
자주 틀리는 발음의 함정
비디오에서 'fish'와 'visitors'와 같은 단어들은 발음할 때 주의가 필요합니다. 특히 'fish'의 짧은 'i' 발음과 'visitors'의 세 음절은 연습이 필요한 부분입니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 이러한 단어의 정확한 발음을 반복적으로 연습하는 것이 좋습니다. 또한, shadowspeaks 기법을 활용해 특정 구문을 따라 말하면서 자연스러운 억양을 익힐 수 있습니다. 처음에는 어렵게 느껴질 수 있지만, 수차례 반복하면서 익숙해질 것입니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
