Englische Redewendungen, Sprichwörter und Redewendungen sind ein wichtiger Bestandteil des alltäglichen Englisch. Sie kommen die ganze Zeit in geschriebenem und gesprochenem Englisch vor. Da Redewendungen wörtlich nicht immer Sinn ergeben, müssen Sie sich mit der Bedeutung und Verwendung der einzelnen Redewendungen vertraut machen. Das mag nach viel Arbeit erscheinen, aber das Lernen von Redewendungen macht Spaß, besonders wenn Sie englische Redewendungen mit den Redewendungen in Ihrer eigenen Sprache vergleichen.
Wenn Sie lernen, gängige Redewendungen und Ausdrücke zu verwenden, wird Ihr Englisch einheimischer klingen, daher ist es eine gute Idee, einige dieser Ausdrücke zu beherrschen. Sie können beginnen, indem Sie unten die sehr gebräuchlichen englischen Redewendungen lernen, da Sie diesen regelmäßig begegnen werden, wenn Sie amerikanische Filme oder Fernsehsendungen ansehen oder die Vereinigten Staaten besuchen.
