| Let's get back on track with IDIOMS! |
| 01.23.04 (10:37 am) [edit] |
Hello boys and girls. Once again, it is I, SuperThinker, your blogging superhero friend! It's now 2004! Wow! Time sure does fly!
The expression, "Time flies," is an Idiom. An idiom is a phrase or expression that has a meaning which is different from the meaning of the individual words in the expression. Idioms help us express--verbalize, state, communicate ideas. So, although we use the idiom "time flies" we know that time doesn't really have wings. We use the idiom, "time flies" when we want to express the idea that something happened really quickly. For example, I might say, "I had so much fun at my friend's house that I can't believe the day is already over. Wow, time flies when you're having fun!"
There is a wonderful blog called Idioms Are Fun! that belongs to a 5th grade classroom in the State of Georgia. The students pick an idiom, learn about it, illustrate it, and then create sentences that use the idiom.
Boys and girls, please visit Idioms Are Fun!. Read the latest idiom, then click on the comments and post a sentence or two in which you use the idiom. The boys and girls at Idioms Are Fun! will love the visit.
