Find idioms in English on any topic or with any word! Because there are a limited number of idioms in English, for best results:
Use general prompts such as:
– A broad topic
✅”sports”
✅”food”
✅”education”
– A specific word
✅”idioms with the word ‘blue’”
✅”idioms containing ‘horse’”
– A general meaning
✅”feeling sad”
✅”looking forward to something”
✅”comparing things”
What doesn’t work well is:
❌ “rare idioms”
❌ “idioms that will impress people”
❌ “idioms I should learn”
❌ “idioms to teach students”
❌ “to use in a formal situation”
