Understand How Americans Talk About Ideas, Decisions, and Everyday Wisdom.
Every day, people solve problems.
They make decisions.
They share opinions.
They learn from mistakes.
They connect ideas.
They search for answers.
And when Americans talk about these experiences, they rarely use simple, literal English.
Instead, they rely on expressions that communicate insight, common sense, creativity, intelligence, and experience in ways that textbooks rarely explain.
If you've ever heard someone say,
"Put two and two together."
"Think outside the box."
"Food for thought."
"Ring a bell."
"Use your head."
…and understood the words but missed the real meaning, this book is for you.
SPEAK LIKE AN AMERICAN: Mind Over Matter helps you understand the authentic expressions Americans use when discussing ideas, knowledge, learning, judgment, memory, and problem-solving.
As Volume 6 of the Speak Like an American: General Everyday Expressions series, this book takes you beyond textbook English and into the language native speakers use every day to explain, analyze, plan, and make sense of the world.
This isn't another alphabetical collection of expressions.
It's a practical learning guide that organizes 469 authentic American expressions by real-life situations, helping you understand not only what they mean, but when Americans use them, why they choose them, and the thinking behind them.
