Apple Idioms


It was a little cool here this morning. Even though it’s not felt like fall. And fall means apple season in New York. There’s nothing like the taste of a fresh, crisp Apple. That’s how I got the inspiration for today’s English lesson. Today, let’s take a look at some apple idioms.
Here are the example sentences. To get the details of this English lesson, you need to listen to the podcast.
