What a fun listen!!

The “American Idioms for Everyday Use”audiobook offered me a fun exploration of American idioms. The narrator's adept portrayal of each phrase brings them to life, making learning both enjoyable and accessible. The anecdotes add great enjoyment while learning. While the audiobook format is convenient, as I could listen while driving or going about activities in the house, I sometimes wished for the print version to reference idioms randomly. I still may purchase the print version to do just that. What truly sets this audiobook apart is its ability to make learning fun. As someone who enjoys exploring language's intricacies, I eagerly anticipated each new expression and the accompanying stories. From “raining cats and dogs” to “barking up the wrong tree” each idiom is presented in a manner that is both accessible and engaging. As a musician, I particularly enjoyed the section on musical idioms! I was surprised to learn the origin of some of these phrases, many from writers such as William Shakespeare. The quiz section pleasantly surprised me, revealing how much I had retained after listening. Overall, this work would be a delightful addition to any library, whether audio or print. It would also be a great gift, whether as a Christmas stocking stuffer, a White Elephant present, or a gift for someone “who has everything!”

This is a book like no other I have heard or read. As a linguist I am naturally interested in the origin of words and phrases and this book definitely delivered. I particularly enjoyed the quiz!
