Express to Impress

To Get at Something and Other American Idioms and Phrases

To be in the middle of nowhere means to be in a place that is far away from other people, houses, or cities. For instance, my office is in the middle of nowhere. It takes me hours to get there!

Las expresiones ayudan a dar color a tus conversaciones y bien usadas te hacen sonar más natural en el idioma que estudias. En español, como en la mayoría de los idiomas tenemos muchas. Y en el episodio de hoy te voy a hablar de algunas que tienen algo en común. Todas ellas usan la palabra pez, o su plural, peces. En el episodio además de explicarte lo que significan te doy ejemplos de cuando podemos utilizarlas para que las veas en contexto.

Espero que, como siempre, disfrutes el episodio y aprendas algo nuevo. Después de escucharlo recuerda dejarle una valoración y pasarte por mi Instagram para contarme qué te ha parecido el episodio, ¿conocías alguna de estas expresiones? ¿Cuál de ellas te ha gustado más?
