WHY DO AMERICANS SAY THAT? explores 550 idioms, slang expressions, sayings, abbreviations, and everyday phrases that are part of real American English. Each entry explains what the expression means, shows how it is used in real life, and adds helpful cultural context when there is more to the story.
From workplace language and relationships to money, food, sports, regional expressions, texting, and social media, this book is designed to help you understand the English Americans actually use-not just the English found in textbooks.
A friendly, practical guide for English learners, travelers, expats, and anyone curious about the language and culture behind everyday American conversation.
