English Idioms That Include “Back”

When you want to cheer someone up, you could say, **"I'm here for you.”**

Another expression you can use is **"I've got your back.”**  😎

Try imagining supporting somebody from behind them!
Can you guess why the word "back" is used?

**I've got your back if you ever need someone to talk to. I'm here for you.**

The word **back** is also used in **“talk behind somebody's back”**, which means talking about somebody without them knowing, especially because they would not like it.

Again, try imagining talking about someone behind them, and they don’t know you’re talking about them.

Talk behind one’s back

There’s more than one way to describe rainy weather?!

Useful English Idioms, Sayings, and Phrases For Rainy Weather 🌧️

Sometimes raindrops can be like mist! They might seem too small to be called raindrops, but it's not like it isn’t raining at all. 

The word you can use is “drizzle”. It means “light rain falling in very fine drops.”

In the movie, ‘The Devil Wears Prada’, Miranda tells Andrea to book a flight during a thunderstorm. This is what she says:

”**Please, it’s just, I don’t know, drizzling!”**

🌧️ Drizzle

Recently, where I live, there has been a lot of heavy rain. Another expression you can use instead of heavy rain is “downpour”.

As the word implies, downpour means a heavy rain that pours down.

**Wow, did you get caught in that downpour earlier? I was soaked in seconds!**

🌫️ Downpour

Should I pack my umbrella, or not?!

Last summer I experienced an unexpected downpour on a bright summer’s day, and of course, I didn’t have an umbrella.

In English, rain that comes and goes irregularly is described as "on and off.”

"On and off" can be used when something happens irregularly. When we say "raining on and off," it means that it is raining irregularly.

**The forecast says it's going to rain on and off all day.**

🌂 On and Off

Do you have a wet season where you live? Where I live, it’s expected to rain all throughout July and August. ☔️

Useful English Idioms, Sayings, and Phrases You Can Use at the Hospital! 🏥

Some doctor’s offices and hospitals might accept walk-ins. However, most of the time, you will need to make an appointment. An arrangement for a doctor and patient to meet at a particular time/date is called **“a doctor’s appointment”.**

🤒 How To Explain Your Symptoms

K-pop, K-pop English, study English, slay the concert, bias, bias wrecker, K-pop related English expressions, fangirl, fanboy

“Do You Know What ‘Slay the Concert’ Means?”

Words like **rip, crush, tear up,** and **awesome** can be used to describe a concert. However, these expressions don’t include the nuance that K-pop fans really want to express.
Native speakers use the word **slay** in this kind of situation.
If you know or look up the meaning of slay in the dictionary, you might be surprised, but **slay** also means **to give a strong impression to someone**!

**Adele literally slayed the concert. I can't believe I was there last night!** ✨

💗 What? Slay the Concert? What Does That Mean?

Generally, K-pop fans describe their favorite member as their **bias**. Of course, you can just say my favorite member instead, but it just doesn’t quite ring the bell.
If you actually look up the word **bias** in the dictionary, you’ll learn that it means **distortion** or **prejudice**. So why is it the word for describing your favorite?
Well, when you have a distortion or prejudice, you lean toward it, right?
That's how **bias** came to mean favorite.

**I love all the members of IVE, but Yujin is my bias!** 💓

🤔 My Favorite member? ❌ My Bias ⭕️

You can use **bias wrecker** to describe your second favorite.
This expression is actually a combination of **bias**, meaning your favorite, and **wrecker** which means **a person or thing that wrecks, damages, or destroys something. So it means someone who threatens the position of your bias and tries to become your new bias.
So if they’re not your bias yet, but you think that the person has the possibility or potential to become your bias, you could say that that person is your **bias wrecker\*\*.

**Do you have any bias wreckers? My bias wrecker is RM.**

🧟 How About Your Second Favorite Member?

Even if you’re not good at English, having to say just ‘awesome’ might not feel enough after witnessing and getting overwhelmed by your bias tearing up the stage.
If you agree, then this article is dedicated to you.🤩

Today’s Weather Forecast From RedKiwi⛈

Let's start with an expression used to ask about the weather. "What's the weather like today?”
Let’s say it's extremely cold, about minus 10 degrees.
Don't just use "cold"👀 Instead, use 'freezing cold', meaning that you feel like you might freeze to death, or use 'below freezing' to express that the weather is below zero.
If it isn’t that cold, you can use 'chilly'. Here’s an example of how to use it!✨

**It's quite chilly outside, Bring a coat!🧥**

🥶

When talking about information you heard in the weather forecast, you can say, "I heard from the forecast that..." or "The forecast says...".
It's used a lot in everyday life, so try to remember it!🙌
You can also say, "(weather) is forecast for this Monday". Take a look at the example.

**Rain/Snow is forecast for this week.😹**

☔️

Weather forecasters use the expression 'be likely to' very often, to indicate a possibility.
The weather is very subject to change, so they can’t be 100% sure.😃
How about we take a look at the expressions they use on TV?😎

**Some areas are likely to have snow today. We're likely to have thunder tonight. The sea is likely to be stormy today.**

💡The Expression Weather Forecasters Use the Most: ‘Likely To’

Have you ever seen a weather forecast broadcast in English?⛈
There are actually more expressions related to weather than you can imagine.

How To Win an Argument in English🗣

When we face a problem, it's natural for us to want to know who or what caused it.
In these situations, you might ask 'Whose fault is it?' or 'Who is at fault?'.
If it's our fault, we should coolly admit it.
‘My bad.’ is a natural and casual expression you can use to admit that ‘It's my mistake.’
You might also want to know what to say when we feel like we’re being unjustly blamed for something.
This is probably the expression you'll use the most.

**What have I done wrong?🤯**

☝️If You Blame Someone for Something, You Might End up in an Argument

Think of a scene of a couple in a TV show that is in an argument.
Which words do you think you’ll hear the most?
The answer is ‘business’ and ‘enough’. Does this ring a bell?👏 🛎
Here, the word ‘business’ is usually used to mean ‘work’, or ‘job’.
It's used in expressions like "Mind your own business" or "Go about your business". It means to ‘get off my nerves and go and do your own job’.
Then what do you say when you're tired of your opponent's behavior, or tired of arguing?
Use the word ‘enough’ to make this expression.

**I've had enough**🙀

✌️ The 2 Most Frequently Used Words in an Argument

It’s always important to cut off meaningless arguments before they turn into big ones.
Trying to bring up a different topic is a possible solution.
To do this, you might say "Let's stop arguing about this". Or you could say, 'Let's just forget about it.’ and ask to forget about the topic altogether.
If the argument still doesn't come to a conclusion, you might need to appeal to your opponent to end it. In this case, you can use this expression.

**Can we just move on?😅**

🤟 Expressions Used to End an Argument (But Might End up Making It a Bigger One🤣)

Isn’t it just the saddest thing when you’re upset and you deserve an apology, but you can’t express your feelings properly in English?🥺
You can use these expressions in any conflict situation to prevent this from happening.
I'll teach you a few English expressions you can use when you get into an argument with somebody.
