Booster: Let's "Spice Up" our English with some everyday phrases!

    

Today our goal was to spice up our writing with some fun phrases! Here a few that we learned:

To spice something up: to make something more interesting

Out with the old, in with the new.

You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

To peackock: to show off

To spill the beans! (or for the British: to spill the tea!) Tell me the story! or Tell the truch!

Don't be a one of the "sheeple! " Be yourself!

Our favorite phrase to use by far was ...

Piece of cake!


We said that some subjects in school are a piece of cake!

    Like for Berenice, math and history are a piece of cake.

    For Francesco too, and Italian!

    PE and math are a piece of cake for Chiara.


We also liked the phrase saved by bell.

    The bell saved me from taking the test!

    The professor asked me a difficult question, but I was saved by the bell! 


Now we can peacock about with the new English phrases we've learned, but we will stay humble for now!
