Language: en
Caption: yeah this is the lorelle and rochelle show all right well thank you for joining so what are we gonna talk about today well i thought it would be fun to talk about idioms and there&#39;s lots and lots of idioms out there and especially in american english i know i&#39;m sure ken clay and the british contingent has a ton of idioms on their side and we could talk about that comparison someday but today you and i could talk about american idioms and some of the they might be in other countries too or something similar which is always fun but um we have like a little graphic that we could bring up and a lot of them are animal idioms and some of them are other kinds of idioms now i know you and i have both done idioms in the past with different things we&#39;ve done i&#39;ve done food idioms and summer idioms but today we can kind of concentrate on animal idioms and whatever else is on the the picture but i think it&#39;s fun to discuss these okay me too i&#39;m gonna share the picture right now and we can discuss it and while we&#39;re talking i might be looking over here because that&#39;s where it ends up being for me um so which one should we start with well i think a fun one is on your high horse okay so what does it mean to be on your high horse okay on it means okay superior to be superior or arrogant in the position yeah like i you know i&#39;m better than you are or i have more superior skills or or stuff than you do or you know um i&#39;m i&#39;m uh right in this situation you know so it is an interesting thing do you think we use this in real life sometimes you know i haven&#39;t i can&#39;t think of when i have actually i&#39;ve actually heard of it but i don&#39;t think when i&#39;ve actually ever said to somebody that they&#39;re on their on their high horse can you think of how we would we would say that in a sentence um i&#39;m not sure if it would be something like he&#39;s the best athlete in the school you know um and also we would say something like don&#39;t let it go to his head that&#39;s another idiom about being arrogant or being like better than everyone so it&#39;s kind of like get off your high horse you&#39;re not the best athlete in the school okay you know something like that it could be for awards oh my gosh you know the will smith thing right exactly and the picture is great too because you see the the the boy on the horse and he&#39;s almost looking up like he&#39;s superior to everyone else that&#39;s low on their uh maybe they&#39;re on their little donkeys or whatnot so it&#39;s like on your horse you&#39;re better than everyone else you&#39;re higher right right you&#39;re untouchable well no you&#39;re not even if you&#39;re a celebrity you&#39;re not untouchable it&#39;s very interesting yeah okay um what&#39;s another one cool as a cucumber is a fun one in the middle there so what is cool is a cucumber mean cool as a cucumber oh it means very calm and not nervous cool as a cucumber now i don&#39;t know many cucumbers that play guitar no i definitely don&#39;t i love the i love the imagery of it but i think like to be playing the guitar you&#39;re kind of like you&#39;re you&#39;re very relaxed and you&#39;re just strumming along your guitar you&#39;re cool as a cucumber uh-huh and i realize that&#39;s not an animal but i it he looks like like a creature like in this picture he makes me think of all of these make the idiom of the food or the animal look alive yeah so it&#39;s kind of like uh personality yeah they they&#39;re personified or whatever that&#39;s called [Laughter] so it&#39;s fun um so when are you as cool as a cucumber when you are what confident when you are um you know i don&#39;t know if i would say this in real life either like oh he&#39;s cool as a cucumber i don&#39;t think we say that a whole lot but it&#39;s one of those things that you want to know just because it&#39;s fun it&#39;s fine and i don&#39;t see it you might see it in print you might you know hear it in a video so you you may actually come across these because obviously if we&#39;ve heard of them then we&#39;ve seen them either in print or we&#39;ve seen them on a video or maybe we&#39;ve seen them on television so it&#39;s good to like they&#39;re fun but it&#39;s also good to be aware of them right right i think some that we use more and these aren&#39;t necessarily animal video idioms but we might say under the weather oh yes under the weather under the weather meaning not feeling well yeah and it&#39;s kind of a good pictorial representation because like he&#39;s literally underneath the lightning bolts and feeling badly and so he he&#39;s kind of like scared of of the noise or something and he&#39;s under the weather so he&#39;s you know not feeling good um when you&#39;re under the weather it&#39;s really good to maybe hit the hay early yeah that&#39;s a good example or like so like um under the weather i kind of got a cold i&#39;m not feeling very good i better hit the hay early tonight so that means to get a better no you&#39;re not hitting the hay you&#39;re not sleeping on the hay but it does look like he is there absolutely so that&#39;s a good one so um one i have used in the past um well i mean you could be green with envy let&#39;s go down to that one so why is green the color of envy do you know you know i i you know i almost think that that comes out of like other cultures it might be out of the spanish culture but um i have seen that before in in spanish um literature and stuff being green with envy so i&#39;m not 100 sure but i wonder if anybody knows if you want to put it in the comments like why do we use the color green for envy i don&#39;t know yeah and there&#39;s also other colors that we use for other things like red is mad like angry and that makes sense because like your face might get gr you might face will get red when you&#39;re really angry but i don&#39;t think my face turns green if i&#39;m if i have energy right jealous i hope it doesn&#39;t yeah and then when we&#39;re blue i mean are we really blue no no or really sad we&#39;re not so you know it&#39;s just the color that we&#39;re using um so it&#39;s kind of funny how we i think red green and blue are that or maybe yellow are the primary colors yeah so you know that&#39;s why we would use those um before anything else but it is funny well speaking of yellow look at top banana top banana okay that&#39;s a good one uh-huh banana we use that in real life no i mean sometimes we&#39;ll use the big cheese or that um what is the other one we&#39;ll use like top poncho or something i mean there&#39;s a lot of ways we can say um the top person in the company um like the big boss you know so but top banana is a funny one it&#39;s it&#39;s definitely because i love the i love the um the illustration here the graphics yes me too it&#39;s hilarious so i guess he has a phone in his hand and he has a tie on and he&#39;s very strong in what he&#39;s saying smaller and underneath him yes yes so he&#39;s definitely the top banana yeah that&#39;s great so i don&#39;t really use just to the nines do you i have not used dressed the nines i have heard of it let me see dressed to the nines where is that one i&#39;ll address it i&#39;ve heard of this for sure they&#39;ll be like i&#39;m going out to a you know a dance tonight i&#39;m dressed the nines i you know i have like my best you know all my best i have like my earrings and everything perfectly right right but she has glasses of hair i think it&#39;s i it might be kind of old-fashioned i think it is kind of old-fashioned yeah and some of these are i mean some of them we don&#39;t use much like these days like crocodile tears i don&#39;t think i&#39;ve heard that one before i think i probably use this or crocodile tears to children like if you&#39;re a parent i know those are crocodile tears um but again i think it&#39;s a little old-fashioned but i might have said that to my daughter when i think that her tears are fake they&#39;re not real those are just crocodile tears um so that might be an instance where i&#39;ve used that but again i think it is a little old-fashioned right right but it&#39;s fun i mean why do crocodiles even cry you know i i&#39;m not sure that they do i don&#39;t think they do and so you know you just have to be like um you know is this real or is this perfect right right so another one that&#39;s similar to that is wolf and sheep&#39;s clothing which is down in the bottom there right yes wolf and and that&#39;s like back from a fairy tale isn&#39;t it or i think so i mean you know red riding hood i think it was she she was um the wolf dressed up like the grandmother in that one but is there&#39;s another another fable where the wolf dressed up like a sheep three little pigs and the three little pigs there&#39;s lots of cases of the wolf and going after this yeah yeah so he&#39;s dressed up um trying to bang on the door and saying let me in let me in and um he&#39;s he&#39;s he tries to pass himself off as a sheep at first but then they realized he&#39;s the wolf right so so someone who appears to be harmless but is really dangerous exactly don&#39;t let him in no no he&#39;s he&#39;s not going to be good for you so that&#39;s probably a good time to climb up oh the clam up you mean yeah to clam up if you clam up then you refuse to talk so don&#39;t answer the door don&#39;t tell him anything don&#39;t you know of course i think they&#39;re using this in a context where you&#39;re doing something bad and you won&#39;t tell the police about it right obviously not answering the door for the wolf exactly so i guess you could say it that way but it&#39;s also used in this context where you&#39;re you&#39;re doing something wrong but you&#39;re not going to tell the police what you&#39;re doing because you don&#39;t want to get in trouble yeah so maybe that guy should have just sat home and stayed on the couch right the couch potatoes they would have if they stayed on the couch they wouldn&#39;t have gotten in trouble with the police officer exactly someone rides around and barely moves the couch potato i you know it&#39;s fun to be a couch potato at the end of a long day you know but it&#39;s not good to be a couch potato all day long because then you just get bigger and bigger and yeah yeah like that giant potato right there absolutely or what&#39;s happened to me through covet and eating way too much potatoes exactly exactly so now we&#39;re all couch potatoes and but it&#39;s better than going on a wild goose chase a wild goose chase where is that one oh and confusing situation yeah so it&#39;s possible that that robber clam down below um decided to take the policeman in a wild goose chase and then then he&#39;s running after him trying to find him he can&#39;t find him and so that&#39;s why he&#39;s so mad when he finally tracks him down and says okay enough tell me what you did i like how we&#39;re like pulling all of this together in a little story here yeah see i&#39;m good at that well it&#39;s more fun than just going through all of them you know one by one right this is more contextual okay what do we have left um i think we haven&#39;t covered on cloud nine now i&#39;m not sure why we use nine again i&#39;ve heard on cloud nine a lot more than we have dressed to the nines yes so absolutely i icloud nine for some reason on cloud nine is the best cloud to be on right it&#39;s like you&#39;re super happy i&#39;m on cloud nine i just like that you know i don&#39;t know i just like won the lottery i&#39;m on cloud nine or something like that you&#39;re super happy things are going well for you blissfully happy yes yes i&#39;m not sure about the other clouds but cloud9 is the best yeah absolutely so maybe because he was so smart he&#39;s a smart cookie right yeah so he discovered something he created something he he passed a test he he he um graduated whatever it was who is it what is a smart cookie a person who is very intelligent yeah so that person right there um maybe we&#39;ll be on cloud nine more than people who um do other things that are not so good oh and look at he&#39;s reading rocket science for smartypants oh my gosh he is a smart cookie now that is something that we use on a you know regular basis right i mean i&#39;ve heard that idiot before i would definitely say that i&#39;ve heard that that might have said that for sure that&#39;s a useful one so so long as um you know you don&#39;t do all work and no play because if you&#39;re all working no play maybe you&#39;re a goody two shoes all work and you no play where&#39;s that one well that&#39;s not that&#39;s not on there oh right i&#39;m like i don&#39;t think i see that one yeah but oh yeah if you are doing all work in new um no play the goody two shoes like how do we how do we pull that together can you say that one again because she&#39;s always working and she&#39;s never playing she&#39;s always in her heart is always in a book and she&#39;s always better than you know the people that are always playing all the time so she tries to be perfect and you can&#39;t be perfect yeah someone who tries to be perfect goody two shoes and you&#39;re right right perfect it&#39;s a goody two shoes that&#39;s a good one i don&#39;t know that i i say this but i definitely have heard it for sure probably in television right right it&#39;s kind of old-fashioned too it&#39;s kind of like crocodile tears maybe it&#39;s kind of like we don&#39;t say that a lot so and i&#39;m just seeing this i didn&#39;t notice this hit the hay that you you were kind of talking oh yeah earlier when we talked about under the weather uh-huh yeah you have to keep up with me i&#39;m fast you are fast um so what do we have left i think um right next to goody choose choose goody two shoes there&#39;s dogs dog day of dog days of summer man i can&#39;t talk today so dog days of summer is when even a dog is hot it&#39;s the hottest and most humid days of summer right dogs don&#39;t get hot unless it&#39;s super hot i guess i guess not because they can hand right right and so it&#39;s too hot for that dog to even pant so yeah and definitely i think we we&#39;ve i&#39;ve heard that i&#39;ve said that it&#39;s dogs days of summer you know it&#39;s you know that&#39;s gonna be you know in the hundreds like 100 degree fahrenheit that&#39;s what we use in the u.s which i don&#39;t know what that is in celsius if you do know let us know in the comments yeah let us know in the comments what it what&#39;s a really hot day for you yeah you know i mean i know we&#39;ve talked about this so um but dogs also are used in this other idiom on the left hand side called barking up the wrong tree oh right i see it right here barking up um direct directing your efforts towards the wrong person or thing which you see here he&#39;s barking up this tree but the cat&#39;s in this tree yeah that&#39;s true so you know you need to look around dude you know you need to like be more aware of your surroundings you&#39;re barking up the wrong tree so yeah maybe he&#39;s too hot maybe maybe maybe it&#39;s the dog he&#39;s too hot and he doesn&#39;t see that cat in the tree right right right so um there&#39;s a couple left let&#39;s talk about peas in a pod so what does it mean to be peas in a pod people who are close together i&#39;ll often say that about my daughter and her best friend you too are just two peas in a pod yeah yeah and i think we get along well so we could say we&#39;re two peas in a pod teaching english together absolutely in fun ways you know and um you know anybody that you get along with well um but usually it&#39;s classmates schoolmates um you know friends best friends you&#39;re two peas and potty lucky doing exactly the same things it&#39;s fun it&#39;s a fun idiom to use absolutely and if you are watching this video maybe you heard about us through the grapevine through the grapevine oh that&#39;s that&#39;s the last one isn&#39;t it it is yeah so informal spreading of messages gossips or rumors maybe you&#39;ve heard of the laurel and rochelle show we&#39;re famous you know we&#39;re on tv on youtube which is good enough right yeah so yeah so this is i love through the grapevine there&#39;s also a really good song with that title yes and uh yes maybe you could insert that i heard it through the grapevine because i heard that you&#39;re a singer on the weekends right well yeah on the weekends yeah i&#39;m a weekend singer um we have a show this uh tomorrow night with my husband and i we like to sing like classic tunes um i just did

If you have been following our channel, you will know that this is a project that I started almost two years ago with my daughter, who is now 12, to help people learn English. While it is something we dearly enjoy, there are costs to creating this content. One of my followers suggested that I launch a Patreon account, so that if you feel grateful for what you are learning on our channel, you may buy us a cup of coffee ☕  or hot chocolate (hot chocolate for Kat, as she is 12 and maybe should not be drinking coffee). Thank you so much for watching and providing us feedback and encouraging comments 😊😄😁. Also, for our future Patreon sponsors, I will be adding a thank you at the end of the videos in the future with your names 😊
