106 - 9 Collocations, 8 Phrasal Verbs, and 7 Idioms with the word SET

106 - 9 Collocations, 8 Phrasal Verbs, and 7 Idioms with the word SET

Sometimes people ask me to explain in detail the difference between a collocation, a phrasal verb, an idiom, a slang word, a proverb, etc. To be honest, that's the wrong question. All of these types of expressions are part of the English language, but most native English speakers could NOT tell you the technical differences between them. The most important thing for an English learner is to know what they mean and how to use them. So today's lesson is a mix of idioms, phrasal verbs, and collocations with the word ""set"" - all with examples so you can see them in use!
