Mango Languages | Idiomatic Expressions: Language Learning "In the Wild" | Learning Tips & Tricks @mangolanguages | Uploaded November 2021 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
In this "In the Wild" mini-series, your guide Emily (linguist, PhD) breaks down why hearing your target language “in the wild” may be different from how you learned it. It all boils down to 3 main things: (1) idiomatic expressions, (2) sound blending, and (3) dialectal diversity. In this video (Part 1 of 3), you’ll learn everything you need to know about idiomatic expressions: what they are, why they matter, and what you can do about them to reach your fluency goals.
