Expressões idiomáticas

Olá, amigo!

Eu conheço alguns, mas você pode procurar pela Internet que com certeza você vai encontrar VÁRIOS idioms.

Aqui estão alguns que eu conheço:

Essa é bem fácil e significa que as pessoas podem ser "julgadas" melhor pelo que fazem do que pelo que falam. Ou seja, a ação vale mais do que palavras.

Home is where you hang your hat
Significa que o seu lar, a sua casa é o lugar onde você fica bem à vontade.

Blessing in disguise
É mais ou menos a expressão "há males que vêm para o bem".

Don't judge a book its cover
É literalmente a expressão "não julgue um livro pela sua capa", que é bem usado, eu acredito.

É como se fosse o "isso custa o olho da cara".

E tem vários outros idioms por aí. O negócio é você procurar, entender os idioms e praticar. É muito importante!
