I speak English as second language. Whenever I hear new stuff, I save it to my Anki. Here's my Cool Phrases deck if anyone's interested.

I want to expand this deck. Do you know a phrase that stuck in your mind? Any input is welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Ain't no way I'm clicking that link...

As for cool phrases, my favourite is: "It's raining cats and dogs" (because it's funny if you imgane it, bit also macabre when you know th reason behind the phrase => back in the days the dead cats and dogs from allays would wash up on the main street when it was pouring down like crazy).

    I was looking for a better open-source platform to upload the file. If you suggest any, I could do that. :)
