Vocabulary can be a problem, especially in a language such as English. English has so many different levels. Usually what is taught in the ESL or EFL classroom is the standard term or expressions for a common object or activity. Unfortunately, generally in casual conversation, on the radio, on TV, in songs, in the movies and in many magazines and popular books, very rarely is the standard form of many basic words used. For many native-speakers of English, the standard word for an object or activity does not always fully express one’s feelings toward or for that activity or object. Much more frequently, it is the idiomatic synonym of that word which is used. Do you what it is to burn the midnight oil or to keep one’s nose to the grind stone? What does it mean to: shilly-shally, shine up to or shirk one’s responsibility? Do you live in a house or a flat? If you ‘put something on the back burner’ are you also putting it on the shelf, putting it on ice or putting it in cold storage? Also included is a set of istudycards of idiomatic expressions with the to be, food and color expressions, and set of istudycards on the animal expression dog.
