9 Idioms about Likes

May 8, 2020 | IELTS SPEAKING

Questions about likes are among the most common questions you will receive in your IELTS speaking test. There is more than one way to express likes, so let’s find out what the alternatives are.

Comment below any other expressions about likes you want to share with others.

Notes:

  • Only use idioms if you understand their meaning and know when and how they should be applied in context.
  • Don’t overuse idioms. While idiomatic language can boost your score, this does not mean that you should use them in every single sentence. If you overuse idioms you are going to sound very unnatural, and you could also lose coherence because you are focusing more on idioms than actually answering the question. This is not to mention that your fluency will suffer if you keep thinking about idioms too much. Make your life easier by using idioms when it is natural to do so.
  • Most of idioms are informal and should therefore be used in spoken language only. In other words, avoid using them in academic or formal writing.
