Answer:

Love

He’s falling head over heels for her. (This means that he’s deeply in love.)

They’re being so lovey-dovey with one another. (This means they are being overly affectionate towards each other.)

It was love at first sight. (Self-explanatory—a person who falls in love with another the first time they see them.)

Our Feelings

I was tickled pink when I heard the news. (In other words, he was very happy.)

She was on cloud nine after receiving a hefty raise. (Another expression about feeling happy.)

I’m going to stay in bed because I’m feeling under the weather. (A person who is feeling either sad or sick.)

How Easy Or Difficult Something Is

Fixing a bike is not exactly rocket science. (Fixing a bike is simple, to put it another way)

I’m trying to find the remote, but it’s like a needle in a haystack. (In other words, he’s having a hard time finding it.)

It’s hot outside, so staying inside today was a no-brainer for me. (It means the choice was very easy to make.)

And these are just a few situations where these kinds of expressions might be used. There’s obviously plenty more, but you get the idea. If you want to see more idioms with sentences, you can look down near the bottom.

Examples of Idioms In Other Languages

Let’s go over a couple idiom examples in other languages besides English. Yes, idiomatic expressions are a part of other languages too! This first one is an expression in German. It goes (when translated to English):

“To talk around the hot porridge.”

An equivalent to this in English is to beat around the bush. Basically, it means a person is talking about something without getting to the point of what they’re trying to say. Here’s the second example. It’s a Swedish expression. It goes like this (after being translated):

“A close shot will never get you the rabbit.”

In English, an equivalent to this is close, but no cigar. It means that a person was close to accomplishing something, but fell short at the end; they almost had it.
