IDIOM games~~~

How many IDIOMS do you know? Let us write here and then make a sentence with the idiom.

get one up on sb. 

No matter what he did, I always managed to get one up on him.

the price of inaction is far greater than the cost of a mistake.

Hi, Nu Poqodi, What do you mean? Is attagirl a slang?

I wanna polish my English and  talk with natives, but natives talk with me once in a blue moon.  I don't know why. Poor me~!

hi thisisbenmo

your game  is amazing,but it is better to define the idiom first  then write an example

Yes, King 2009. You are right. So let's begin with the idiom "once in a blue moon"

Once in a blue moon means very rarely.

Ok, it's your turn. Could you make a sentence with once in a blue moon?

Hi, Nu Pogodi. Do natives use idioms when writing essay? I wanna improve my written English, so I am planning to study IDIOMS. Is it useful?

How about phrasal verbs and adv.?

Hi, Nu Pogodi. Thank you. I've just bought a book about phrasal verbs from the bookstore. You know I am going to study Master of International Finance and Master of Professtional Accounting in Melbourne, so I think it is better to improve my written skills in advance. I wanna be the outstanding one in the class. Haw~! I am not sure how to write dissertation in English. Should I use a lot of written English in the dissertation? I can't distingush  written to spoken English? I thought idimos belong to written English and slangs belong to spoken English. Phrasal verbs are used in both written English and spoken English.

Should I have to use a large number of adverb in the dissertation? My English told that natives use a lot of adverb in their articles. Thank you for your help.

From A to Z (very thoroughly and in detail)

I don't know how to write dissertation in English because I am unable to tell written English and spoken English. Are there any native speakers who know it from A to Z? Help, I need your help, please.

Now it is your turn now.
