    How to say it

    Idiom = a phrase with a special meaning, not word-by-word — “Idioms make your English lively and natural”

    1. Learn the idiom as one block with its meaning: piece of cake = बहुत आसान.
    2. Do not translate word by word. 'Under the weather' means ill, not under the sky.
    3. on time = exactly at the planned time (ठीक समय पर); in time = early enough, before it is late (समय रहते).

    Use it for: Chatting with friends, talking about exams, office small talk, telling someone you are not well.

    Worked example: The test was easy – a piece of cake.

    1. Try each option in the gap: cake / bread / pie.
    2. piece of cake = very easy. (बहुत आसान = piece of cake)

    Check: I can say: The test was a piece of cake. The train arrived on time. Let's call it a day. ✓
