Fruit Idioms 🍓

A website for learning English idioms with the meaning of "Fruit" 🍏. Created as part of strawberry2892 🍓's school project.

Description

On the site, you can study idioms in detail, and then test your knowledge by taking a test.

The site provides information about 21 idioms in English with the meaning "Fruit". For each idiom it is indicated:

• translation into Russian (meaning)
• literal translation
• synonyms in English
• examples of usage with translation
• the origin of the idiom (brief reference)

These mini-articles are based on English textbooks and English-Russian dictionaries of idioms (for more information, see Resources).

To consolidate the studied material, the site presents four categories of tasks:

• choose the translation of the idiom into Russian from the suggested options
• connect the two parts of the idiom
• insert a suitable idiom into a sentence
• write a translation of the idiom into English

After sending, you can view and correct your mistakes (the form can be sent several times). The percentage of correct answers is shown.
