language traps

by Annamaria Otvos
1

I’m a well-known phrase that paints a stormy picture with animals. Guess the idiom that means very heavy rain.

Hints

Often tied to weather talk and not to real animals.

Used to describe a downpour that’s intense and rapid.

A common English expression about rain, not a literal scene.

2

I’m not outside, I’m about how you feel. When I’m around, you might sneeze or rest in bed

3

I’m something easy to do, not dessert you eat. People say I’m simple, fun, and sweet in a way.

4

You won’t hurt yourself when I’m said. I’m something people say before you start a show. I’m all about luck, not pain.

5

What can you catch but not throw?

6

A tricky pair that can trip up language learners.

Hints

Example often cited involves word pairs that look alike but mean opposite or different things.

Common in cross-language learning, not in native fluency.

Looks familiar to a word you know, but its meaning is different.
