- Hello everyone! I have a new blog post called "Idioms from Transportation: What do they mean and where do they come from?" https://www.difficultenglishexplained.com/blog/transportation_idioms The easiest way to learn and remember idioms is to learn about their history. When you understand where they came from, it's a lot easier to remember what they mean. In this post, I cover "in the fast lane," "to ride shotgun," and "a backseat driver."August 21, 202300
