Idioms and phrasal verbs Hi everyone. What's the difference between the idioms and phrasal verbs? I which contexts are they used? (colloquial vs formal speaking situations) Could you recommend me any resources to learn them? I'm a bit confused about this and I wanna start adding them to my vocabulary. Thanks for your answers!

An idiom is any expression which has a non-literal meaning. For example, if you say 'Can you give me a hand?', this is an idiom, because you don't literally want the other person to give you a 'hand' : you want them to help you. If you something is very easy, you can say 'It's a piece of cake' - this is another idiom. A phrasal verb is a combination of a verb plus one or two other little words, usually adverbs or prepositions. When they are combined, they take on a new meaning. For example, 'come' + 'across' = 'come across', which means to find or meet. NB A piece of advice: Don't write 'wanna'. If you want to write proper English, you should use proper words.
